IT Auditor Manager

Job Description

We are looking for an experienced IT Auditor Manager to join a financial services organization in Greer, South Carolina on a 6-month contract assignment with the potential to become permanent. This role is ideal for someone who is detail oriented and can balance technical audit expertise with business partnership, guiding stakeholders through risk, control, and compliance matters with confidence. The position offers a hybrid schedule after onboarding and will play a key part in strengthening IT audit activities, supporting SOX-related efforts, and contributing insights across a range of audit engagements.

Responsibilities:

• Lead IT audit activities by evaluating technology controls, facilitating walkthroughs, and performing risk-based testing across relevant systems and processes.

• Serve as a trusted advisor to control owners, operational stakeholders, and business leaders by translating technical audit matters into practical guidance.

• Take ownership of the IT SOX program, including planning, execution oversight, issue identification, and follow-up on remediation efforts.

• Partner with internal teams to assess IT governance, ITGC, and broader compliance controls while supporting audit coverage throughout the year.

• Prepare clear audit observations, reports, and recommendations that help leadership understand risk exposure and strengthen control effectiveness.

• Contribute to organizational changes affecting the IT audit function and help maintain continuity as team structures evolve.

• Support multiple audit initiatives as needed, including reviews tied to compliance systems and other technology-related risk areas.

• Encourage thoughtful improvements to audit methodology, including the use of innovative tools and emerging technologies such as AI where appropriate.

• Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field such as information systems, accounting, finance, or business.

• A relevant certification is required for the manager level, such as CISA, CISSP, CPA, or a comparable credential.

• Demonstrated experience leading IT audits within regulated or complex environments, preferably in financial services.

• Strong knowledge of SOX, ITGC, COBIT, IT governance, audit programs, and audit methodology.

• Ability to operate in an advisory capacity by offering practical recommendations beyond control testing alone.

• Proven communication skills with the ability to work effectively with both technical teams and business stakeholders.

• Self-directed approach with a strong sense of accountability and the ability to manage priorities in a hybrid work setting.
