Role Overview:

What you’ll do:

Strategy and Operational Excellence

• Own the IA operating model, leadership cadence, strategic initiatives, and continuous improvement roadmap.
• Own IA scorecards, dashboards, KPIs, and OKRs to monitor organizational performance, portfolio delivery, and execution risks.
• Run feedback loops including post-engagement reviews, stakeholder surveys, and lessons learned, and report themes to the CAE.

Board and Executive Governance

• Own the process, timeline, consistency checks, and follow-through for Audit Committee and Board materials, including pre-Board preparation and follow-through.
• Work closely with the IA Executive Assistant Business Partner (EABP) on planning and coordination of pre-Board meetings, IA SLT meetings, and major IA forums. The EABP retains responsibility for executive scheduling, calendar coordination, and meeting logistics.

• Sponsor and prioritize audit workflow tools, automation, knowledge management, and technology enhancements.

• Lead, coach, and develop the L5 IA Operations & Enablement role.
• Partner with IA leaders, Finance, Legal, Technology, and the IA EABP to ensure clear accountability and timely execution.

Success in the first 12 months will look like:

• Board and Committee materials delivered on a fixed timeline with few late changes.
• AI-enabled workflows in production with measured adoption and efficiency measures.
• Positive feedback from users on AI workflow tools and linkage to methodology/ways of working.

• 7+ years in internal audit, audit operations, strategy and operations, or governance; internal audit background required or strongly preferred.
• 2+ years of direct people management experience.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Demonstrated success leading cross-functional initiatives and communicating with executives.
• Strong analytical, reporting, process improvement, and stakeholder-management skills.
• Working knowledge of the Global Internal Audit Standards and audit quality programs; demonstrated delivery of workflow or AI/automation initiatives.
• Strong interpersonal skills, highly collaborative with business leaders and cross-functional partners, and a strong ability to build relationships, gain credibility, and partner with others.
• Self-motivation with a strong affinity for vision setting, strategic problem solving, and driving action.
• Excellent business judgment and great communication skills.
• Embody the highest standards of integrity, ethics, and accountability.
• Enthusiastic about Uber and the opportunity to have a big impact!
