• Prepare clear, concise, and audit-ready reporting of testing results, deficiency status, and remediation progress for review by senior stakeholders and SOX leadership.
• Support the organization's SOX control uplift initiatives by contributing to improvements in control design, testing efficiency, and documentation quality.
• Drive continuous improvement of testing methodologies, including documentation standards, quality controls, and the use of data analytics and system-generated reports in testing where applicable.
• Operate independently on assignments of significant complexity, applying advanced judgment, analytical skills, and problem-solving capabilities with limited supervision.
• Provide informal leadership, coaching, and mentoring to junior team members involved in business process control testing, including guidance on testing techniques, documentation expectations, and issue identification.
