Full Job Description
We are seeking a dynamic, business-minded Senior Auditor to join our Internal Audit team. In this highly visible role, you will do more than provide assurance-you will act as a key business partner, collaborating with teams across the company to drive process improvements, strengthen internal controls, and support sustainable growth. As part of a proactive, value-driven audit function, you'll have the opportunity to contribute your technical expertise while helping our business leaders operate with greater confidence and efficiency.

What You'll Do
  • Lead and execute SOX 404 control testing and risk-based operational audits for both financial and IT processes, going beyond compliance to identify improvement opportunities and support business objectives.
  • Partner closely with control and process owners to understand their challenges, build trust, and find solutions that support both compliance and practical business needs.
  • Be a catalyst for change-work with cross-functional stakeholders to streamline processes, increase automation, and promote operational excellence, not just check compliance boxes.
  • Translate audit findings into actionable recommendations that help teams innovate, reduce risk, and deliver results.
  • Prepare clear and insightful workpapers, reports, and presentations that foster productive dialogue and continuous improvement across the organization.
  • Support development and refinement of risk assessments, process maps, and control frameworks as our business grows and transforms.
  • Assist with new initiatives, process changes, or system implementations, serving as a trusted advisor to ensure risks are managed and opportunities realized.
  • Maintain best-in-class knowledge of SOX, internal controls, and regulatory trends, bringing a forward-looking perspective to your work and to the team.

What We're Looking For
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Information Systems, or related field.
  • 3-6 years of public accounting (Big 4 a plus) and/or internal audit experience in a public company/SOX environment.
  • A track record of execution-someone who takes ownership, drives initiatives forward, and ensures recommendations don't sit on the shelf.
  • Action-oriented, persistent, and results-driven: you take pride in getting things done and making a visible impact.
  • Deep understanding of SOX 404, internal controls, and key financial and ITGC processes.
  • Hands-on experience with walk-throughs, control testing, and documentation.
  • Proficiency with audit management tools (AuditBoard preferred), Excel, and data analytics platforms.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills: ability to translate audit findings into actionable recommendations for all levels.
  • Collaborative, proactive problem-solver with a continuous improvement mindset.
  • Ability to work autonomously, execute tasks, and manage multiple priorities in a dynamic, growth-oriented environment.
  • Professional certification (or progression towards) such as CPA, CIA, or CISA highly desirable.

Why Join Us?
  • Play a key role in shaping our SOX and internal control environment as we scale
  • Be a business partner, not just an auditor-make a direct impact on how we grow and operate.
  • Collaborate across departments in a dynamic, innovative company.
  • Broaden your skills with diverse audit and advisory projects.
  • Visibility with senior leadership and a clear path to career progression.
  • Support for continuing education and professional development.
