Senior Internal Auditor - Operational Audit

$100k

Cornerstone Search Partners, Inc.

Tired of spending most of your year on SOX testing instead of actually auditing the business?

Scroll down to find an indepth overview of this job, and what is expected of candidates Make an application by clicking on the Apply button.

This role gives you real operational audit exposure, not another seat dominated by controls testing. You'll work across the Americas, including the U.S., Canada and Latin America, with direct exposure to how the business actually runs.

You don't need to have spent your whole career buried in SOX. You do need to be ready to think beyond a testing checklist, evaluate how the business operates, and bring practical recommendations to management.

Can be located in Chicago, IL or Orlando, FL. Up to $100K plus bonus. Less than 10% travel, domestic and international.

From day one, you'll be working with:

Operational, financial and compliance audits across the Americas

Risk assessment, audit planning and scoping

Fieldwork and direct engagement with business stakeholders

Control gap identification and process improvement recommendations

Audit findings and report drafting

Remediation tracking through completion

Why this role stands out:

Roughly 90% of SOX testing here is outsourced, so you're doing real operational audit work, not compliance testing

The organization is highly acquisitive, so the businesses you audit and the risks you assess are constantly evolving

Audit results get visibility from Executive Management and the Audit Committee

The audit function is rolling out Agile audit methodology, giving you a hand in shaping how the team works, not inheriting a fixed process

Ideal background:

3+ years of public accounting, internal audit or directly relevant xhyhwjd audit experience

Strong operational audit and/or risk assessment experience

Ability to think critically, not just execute a testing program

Strong project management and organizational skills

Confidence communicating with stakeholders at multiple levels

Strong written communication and report-writing ability

CPA or CIA a plus, not required

If you're ready to move past repetitive controls testing and build real operational audit depth at a large, decentralized, highly acquisitive organization, this is worth a conversation.
