• Monitor emerging technology risks, including cybersecurity threats, cloud transformation, automation, AI governance, data privacy, system implementations, and technology-enabled business changes, to identify areas where Internal Audit may provide additional value to management.

• Communicate audit results, risk themes, control trends, remediation status, and changes to the audit plan to leadership, senior management, and external auditors, as appropriate.

• Partner with key executives and leaders across IT, cybersecurity, finance, compliance, and business operations to evaluate control design, strengthen governance, and support effective risk management routines across the enterprise.

• Champion the use of data analytics, automation, and technology-enabled audit techniques to improve audit quality, efficiency, coverage, and insight.

• Manage co-source and external service provider relationships, including scope, quality, performance, budget, and knowledge transfer.

• Develop a high-performing IT audit team with the skills, certifications, and technical expertise needed to execute the audit plan and support professional growth.

• As needed, support investigations, special projects, acquisitions, divestitures, integrations, and other strategic initiatives.

• Deep expertise in IT General Controls (ITGCs), cloud platforms, ERP systems, and industry frameworks (e.g., NIST CSF, COBIT, ISO 27001, IIA Standards);

• Proven track record of communicating complex technical risk concepts clearly to senior executives and audit committees.

These are nice-to-have skills that will set candidates apart:

• Hands-on experience with audit analytics tools (e.g., SQL, Python, Power BI, Alteryx) and modern GRC platforms;
