  • Evaluate the design and operating effectiveness of governance, risk management, and internal control frameworks throughout the organization.
  • Expand Internal Audit's focus beyond SOX compliance by conducting operational audits that assess efficiency, effectiveness, productivity, cost optimization, and overall business performance.
  • Conduct manufacturing and plant audits evaluating production processes, inventory management, quality systems, production controls, asset protection, and supply chain risks.
  • Support the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) program through enterprise-wide risk assessments, evaluation of mitigation strategies, and integration of key risks into the annual audit plan.
  • Lead advisory engagements supporting strategic initiatives, business process improvements, ERP implementations, digital transformation initiatives, automation projects, mergers and acquisitions, post-acquisition integrations, and organizational change.
  • Conduct and oversee special projects, including fraud investigations, ethics-related reviews, forensic assessments, and management-requested engagements.
  • Develop practical, risk-based recommendations that strengthen internal controls while improving operational effectiveness and business performance.
  • Communicate audit results, key risks, trends, and recommendations to senior leadership and governance committees through clear, concise, and impactful reporting.
  • Monitor management's remediation efforts and validate corrective actions to ensure timely and sustainable resolution of audit findings.
  • Build strong, trusted relationships across the organization while maintaining Internal Audit's independence, objectivity, and professional skepticism.
  • Coordinate with external auditors, regulators, and other assurance providers to optimize audit coverage and minimize duplication of effort.
  • Drive continuous improvement within the Internal Audit function through the adoption of leading practices, data analytics, continuous auditing, automation, and technology-enabled audit methodologies.
  • Perform other duties and special projects as assigned.
