The Internal Audit Manager – Assurance, Analytics & Controls Enablement is a hands-on leader responsible for building and operating modern assurance capabilities across internal audit, compliance, and internal controls. This role is intended for an internal auditor who wants to design how assurance works, not simply review what already exists.

The role combines:

• Assurance credibility and execution, with an analytical-driven approach
• Strong partnership with Finance, Legal, Compliance, IT, and Operations, and
• A practical, technology-enabled approach to controls, monitoring, and risk insight.

You will help shift assurance from periodic, manual testing toward continuous, data-informed confidence in how the business operates.

Key aspects of the role include:

• Leading risk-based audits, compliance assessments, and controls assurance activities.
• Building repeatable analytics and monitoring routines that strengthen compliance while reducing manual effort.
• Applying GenAI and Process Intelligence concepts to better understand how processes actually operate and where controls succeed or fail.
• Be comfortable exploring new technologies (e.g. setting up AI Agents that will improve our audit and compliance processes)
• Owning the J‑SOX program, serving as the primary interface with the parent company in Japan and ensuring disciplined, defensible execution.

This role does not manage a large team. It requires judgment, curiosity, and influence, with success measured by stronger controls, better insight, and more resilient compliance outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

Assurance & Compliance Leadership

• Lead assurance initiatives covering internal controls, regulatory compliance, and governance processes across the organization.
• Design and execute audits and compliance reviews that focus on what truly matters to risk, integrity, and reliability, rather than exhaustive checklist coverage.
• Assess control design and operating effectiveness across financial, operational, and technology-enabled processes.
• Identify compliance and control gaps, evaluate root cause, and support sustainable remediation.

Building Analytics Enabled Assurance

• Develop and execute data-driven audit and compliance testing, reducing dependence on manual sampling.
• Build repeatable analytics to support ongoing controls assurance and continuous monitoring.
• Partner with stakeholders to define meaningful KRIs and compliance indicators.
• Apply GenAI to accelerate risk assessment, test logic, documentation, and issue analysis—ensuring outputs remain transparent, explainable, and auditable.

Process Intelligence & Control Validation

• Use transactional and event-level data to understand end-to-end process behavior.
• Identify policy deviations, control bypasses, override patterns, and segregation-of-duties risks that may not surface through traditional testing.
• Translate process insights into practical control improvements and compliance enhancements.
• Help Compliance and Legal teams connect regulatory expectations to how processes actually operate.

J‑SOX Ownership & Global Coordination

• Own the J‑SOX program end-to-end, including scoping, documentation standards, testing approach, deficiency evaluation, and remediation tracking.
• Act as the primary point of contact for Japan-based stakeholders, managing evidence requests, timelines, and reporting.
• Ensure consistency, quality, and defensibility across J‑SOX documentation and results.

Cross Functional Partnership

• Serve as a trusted partner to Finance, Compliance, Legal, IT, Supply Chain, and Operations.
• Facilitate walkthroughs, risk discussions, and control design conversations.
• Influence leaders through data-backed insight, practical trade-offs, and clear articulation of risk and impact.

Reporting & Insight

• Deliver concise, well-structured reports focused on:
  • Compliance posture,
  • Control effectiveness,
  • Risk exposure,
  • Required actions.
• Communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences in the Americas and Japan.

Capability & Continuous Improvement

• Help shape the evolution of internal audit and compliance assurance methods.
• Build reusable analytics, templates, and approaches that scale.
• Promote a mindset of continuous compliance and continuous improvement.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in business, engineering, information systems, computer science, analytics, or a related field.
• Experience leading or contributing to audits, compliance reviews, internal controls testing, or risk initiatives.
• Solid understanding of internal controls concepts and assurance methodologies.
• Demonstrated ability to apply data analytics (Advanced Excel and/or tools such as SQL, Power BI, ACL, Alteryx, Tableau) to audit and compliance objectives.
• Ability to interpret regulatory or policy requirements and translate them into practical testing and monitoring approaches.
• Strong critical thinking skills and comfort challenging existing practices constructively.
• Strong communication skills and ability to influence across functions without formal authority.

Preferred / Valued Experience

• 7+ years of experience with audit, finance, IT or operations
• Experience with SOX, J‑SOX, or comparable internal controls frameworks.
• Continuous monitoring or continuous auditing experience.
• Process mining / process intelligence experience (e.g., Celonis)
• SAP knowledge.
• Automation or scripting exposure (e.g., Python).
• Exposure to compliance programs or regulatory interactions.
