An intern is needed to fill a specialized position for Six Flags Entertainment Corporation. This position offers the chance to acquire IT audit, risk, and overall business experience, while working in a fun and professional environment. Our IT Audit internship will give you experience that will complement the business knowledge you’ve been amassing and offer exposure to technology risk, IT controls and cybersecurity—increasingly critical areas of business. Your work will benefit the whole organization and will support stronger system security, well‑controlled IT operations, and reliable financial reporting. The IT Audit Intern, reporting to the IT Audit Manager, will support Sarbanes‑Oxley (SOX) IT General Controls (ITGC) compliance activities, including summarizing in‑scope application walkthroughs, control documentation, and testing operating effectiveness for a significant number of in‑scope applications. The Associate will work with internal stakeholders and third‑party service providers to understand in‑scope systems and processes, obtain and evaluate evidence, and help identify and track control deficiencies and remediation. In addition, the Associate may contribute to process improvement efforts including research and use of AI to build more efficient testing methods. Responsibilities Key Responsibilities: Support the SOX ITGC program by understanding in‑scope applications, infrastructure, and key IT processes supporting financial reporting. Review and summarize ITGC walkthrough documentation to understand control objectives, control activities, frequencies, and key evidence (including key reports and IT dependencies). Prepare and maintain process and control documentation (e.g., narratives and flowcharts) in alignment with SOX requirements. Execute testing of operating effectiveness for ITGCs (e.g., user access management, privileged access, change management, and IT operations such as job monitoring/backups) and evaluate results against SOX standards. Request, obtain, and validate testing evidence (e.g., access listings, approvals, tickets, change records, system configurations, and logs) and maintain complete, audit‑ready workpapers. Identify and track exceptions/deficiencies and remediation plans; coordinate with Finance, IT, Cybersecurity, and external auditors to support SOX timelines and follow‑up testing as needed. Qualifications No prior IT audit experience is necessary, as training and guidance will be provided during the internship; candidates must be highly motivated and able to work professionally with and without supervision. Candidates should preferably be studying information systems, information technology, cybersecurity, accounting, finance, or a related major (interest in SOX compliance and internal controls is a plus). Competency with cloud‑based applications and Windows Office is required (Microsoft Excel as primary); familiarity with GRC tools, ticketing systems, and basic data concepts is a plus. Strong attention to detail and the ability to clearly review walkthroughs, complete testing workpapers, and write conclusions are important for success in a SOX environment. Excellent communication skills are preferred, as you’ll interact with control owners and system administrators on a regular basis. Auditors should be willing to work approximately 40 hours per week over 5 days; candidates should be in their junior year or above and have a G.P.A. of 3.00 or higher. #J-18808-Ljbffr Canada's Wonderland
