  • Your responsibilities will include:
  • Risk Assessment, Scoping, and Control Environment
  • Lead the annual, top-down, risk-based SOX / ICFR risk assessment and scoping process (entities, processes, systems, significant accounts / disclosures and relevant assertions), including documentation of key judgments and changes year over year.
  • Coordinate evaluation of entity-level controls, fraud/management override considerations, and monitoring activities as part of the ICFR assessment.
  • Drive periodic reassessment of business, systems, organizational, and process changes (e.g. new products, system implementations, reorganizations, transactions, acquisitions) to determine impacts to scope, control design, documentation, and testing approach.
  • Program Planning, Governance, and Stakeholder Management
  • Own and maintain the annual SOX / ICFR project plan, including milestones for planning, walkthroughs, interim testing, roll-forward testing, year-end close controls, and post-cycle lessons learned.
  • Establish clear program governance, including status reporting cadence, escalation paths, decision logs, and cross-functional communications.
  • Maintain role clarity and appropriate independence when partnering with Internal Audit and / or co-sourced providers; align on responsibilities, timelines, and deliverables.
  • Documentation, Walkthroughs, and RCM Maintenance
  • Partner with process and control owners to develop, maintain, and refresh SOX documentation (narratives, flowcharts, control descriptions) and Risk and Control Matrices (RCMs), ensuring consistency, precision, and audit-ready quality.
  • Plan and coordinate walkthroughs and ensure documentation supports reliance expectations (control objective, frequency, precision, evidence, and ownership).
  • Maintain key inventories (controls, risks, key reports/IPE, and in-scope systems), including version control and change tracking in Workiva.
  • Testing Coordination (business & IT), Evidence Quality, and ITGC Alignment
  • Coordinate and monitor SOX testing performed by Internal Audit (design and operating effectiveness), including schedules, walkthrough coordination, evidence requests, sample selection logistics, status tracking, and timely issue resolution with control owners.
  • Define and reinforce evidence quality standards (completeness/accuracy, level of review, retention), including expectations for controls that rely on information produced by the entity (IPE) and key reports.
  • Coordinate with IT stakeholders on IT general controls (ITGCs), automated controls, SOC reports (where applicable), and segregation of duties considerations to support ICFR reliance.
