• Maintain strong relationships with external auditors and coordinate walkthroughs, evidence collection, and responses to findings.

• Provide expert guidance to IT control owners and business partners on SOX compliance and internal control expectations.

• Monitor and report the status of ITGC/SOX testing to senior leadership, identifying trends and areas of concern.

• Stay current on regulatory requirements, IT frameworks (COBIT, NIST, ISO), and emerging technologies.

Qualifications
