• Manage SOX-related testing and internal control assessments by identifying control gaps, documenting findings, and partnering with stakeholders to support remediation efforts.
• Collaborate with business partners, accounting teams, and external auditors to resolve reporting questions, validate supporting documentation, and maintain consistent compliance with reporting requirements.
• Prepare management reports, presentations, and analytical summaries that communicate operating results, emerging issues, and recommendations for process improvement.
• Monitor changes in accounting guidance, regulatory expectations, and reporting rules to help ensure ongoing compliance and appropriate application within the organization.
• Contribute to special initiatives such as system enhancement testing, ad hoc financial analysis, and projects focused on improving reporting efficiency and control effectiveness.
• Provide guidance to less experienced analysts when needed, including sharing technical knowledge, reviewing work, and supporting development within the team.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related business discipline, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
• At least 3 years of experience in financial accounting, audit, SOX compliance, or financial reporting, preferably within a multi-entity or highly regulated environment.

• Ability to analyze complex financial data, identify reporting or control issues, and recommend practical solutions.
• Experience working with month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes as well as external or regulatory reporting requirements.
