Senior Internal Auditor - Hybrid

Our client is a publicly traded, global organization with a strong operational footprint and a reputation for performance and continuous improvement. They are hiring a Senior Internal Auditor to join a lean, high-impact team supporting SOX, financial, and operational audits across the business. This role is ideal for someone looking to move beyond task execution and take on more responsibility and visibility. 

• Own audits and control testing with limited oversight  
• Navigate ambiguity in a lean, fast-paced environment  
• Engage directly with stakeholders across finance, operations, and corporate functions

• Lead and execute SOX and internal controls testing  
• Lead key aspects of financial and operational review processes
• Partner cross-functionally to evaluate risk, controls, and process effectiveness  
• Identify and communicate control gaps and improvement opportunities  
• Support the development of audit plans, reports, and presentations for stakeholders

• 3–5 years of experience in public accounting (Big 4 or top-tier/mid-market firms) and/or internal audit, including clear ownership of audit areas (not just support) and comfort operating with limited direction  
• Hands-on experience with SOX / internal controls  
• Manage audit processes end to end, from initial planning through testing phases
• Capable of working autonomously and effectively prioritizing tasks in less structured environments
• Strong communication skills — able to engage, question, and influence stakeholders  
• CPA (or meaningful progress toward certification) preferred  

• Background working in highly complex or operations-driven settings
• Familiarity with both financial and operational audit functions
• Background in environments where you were expected to figure things out vs. follow a rigid playbook  

• Candidates who require heavy structure, direction, or step-by-step guidance  
• Candidates in earlier stages of developing foundational audit expertise
• Candidates who prefer heavily structured or multi-tiered environments

• High visibility across a global, publicly traded company  
• Opportunity to expand beyond external audit into broader business impact  
• Exposure to cross-functional leadership and operations  
• Defined opportunities for ongoing advancement within audit or broader finance functions
