The role offers meaningful exposure to senior stakeholders, including Finance leadership and executive management, while providing opportunities to develop audit, business, and leadership skills in a collaborative environment.

The ideal candidate is technically strong, detail-oriented, and intellectually curious, with a desire to understand how the business operates and how controls can enable sustainable growth. They bring a consultative mindset, strong project management skills, and a commitment to delivering high-quality work that creates value for the organization.

This role follows a four-day-per-week in-office schedule and provides significant opportunity for growth and advancement for a high-performing individual who demonstrates leadership, technical excellence, and business partnership.

What You’ll Do:

• Support the planning, execution, and reporting of internal audit engagements.

• Partner with business stakeholders to develop practical recommendations that improve controls while supporting growth.
• Perform SOX readiness activities.
• Validate remediation activities and management action plans, helping drive issues to sustainable resolution.
• Develop and leverage analytics, continuous monitoring techniques and emerging technologies to enhance audit effectiveness and efficiency.
• Build strong relationships with control owners, process owners, and cross-functional stakeholders across the organization.
• Present observations, recommendations, and project updates to audit leadership and business stakeholders, including senior finance leaders.
• Coach, review, and provide feedback to junior team members, guest auditors, and other resources.
• Support special projects and advisory engagements focused on process improvement, operational effectiveness, and risk management.
• Contribute to the continued enhancement of Internal Audit methodologies, workpaper quality, and team practices.

Skills & Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• 2-3 years of experience in public accounting, internal audit, risk advisory, or a related field.
• Experience supervising, coaching, or reviewing the work of less-experienced team members.
• Strong understanding of financial accounting concepts, internal controls, and audit methodologies.

• Proficiency with Excel and familiarity with data analytics, automation, and audit technology tools.
• CPA or CIA certification preferred; candidates actively pursuing professional certification are strongly encouraged to apply.
