- Leverage advanced data tools (Power BI, Excel Macros/VBA, Qlik) to automate control monitoring, visualize risk data, and streamline reporting processes.
- Proactively identify potential financial and operational risks, providing guidance and best-practice recommendations to business units to mitigate issues before they become audit findings.
- Serve as a primary liaison between business stakeholders and external/internal auditors (including Big 4 partners), coordinating information requests and reviewing audit findings.
- Cultivate strong working relationships with diverse global teams, participating in regional initiatives to enhance the overall control environment and culture.
Qualifications You’ll have…
- Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business, or a related field. or equivalent combination of relevant education and experience.
- 3+ years of relevant professional experience in Finance, Internal Control, External Auditing, or Risk Advisory.
- Solid understanding of the COSO framework, Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) requirements, and internal control principles.
- Experience with data modeling and visualization tools, specifically Microsoft Power BI and Excel (including Macros/VBA).
- Demonstrated ability to lead through influence, communicate complex compliance issues to non-finance stakeholders, and work collaboratively in a team environment.
Even better, you may have…
- Master’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or an MBA.
- CPA (Certified Public Accountant), CIA (Certified Internal Auditor), or CISA (Certified Information Systems Auditor) are highly valued.
- Prior experience in a “Big 4” Public Accounting firm (Audit or Risk Advisory practice).
- Advanced proficiency with SQL (querying and data manipulation) and Qlik Sense.
- Previous experience in a large-scale manufacturing, automotive, or heavy industrial environment with complex supply chains.
- Familiarity with Agile methodologies or Project Management Professional (PMP) concepts.
