Title: Senior IT Auditor
Location: Remote or Memphis, TN. Memphis residence and onsite attendance are not required.
Duration: 6 months plus applicable extensions; extensions are not guaranteed.
MOI: Video
Schedule: Available during Central Time business hours.
Role and required experience
5+ years of progressive, hands-on IT audit beyond routine SOX testing. Independently own risk-based or operational audits from scope and risk assessment through testing, documentation, and reporting with limited guidance.
- Learn unfamiliar systems, processes, data flows, and connections; design procedures when existing programs are absent or insufficient. Initial work is expected to include a financial reconciliation application post-implementation review; build on existing planning through completion. Prior application experience is not required.
- Assess IT risks, internal controls, ITGCs, logical/privileged access, and change management. Interview auditees, investigate gaps, and exercise independent judgment.
- Produce risk/control matrices, audit programs, test documentation, and defensible workpapers. Use Excel and audit analytics; communicate evidence, findings, business risk, and practical recommendations clearly. Work remotely with regular checkpoints.
A SOX-heavy background can qualify through independent operational audit ownership; information-security experience alone is insufficient. Discuss specific nonconfidential audit examples; written answers and work samples are not mandatory.
Preferred qualifications and framework guidance
CISA; CISSP/CIA/CPA or comparable certifications; Power Query/Optro; Big Four or similar firms; cybersecurity, operations, infrastructure, applications, emerging-technology, advisory, or other non-SOX audits. Frameworks may include COBIT, COSO, NIST CSF, or applicable ISO standards; experience with every framework is not required. PCI audits are external under Information Security; Internal Audit monitors them, so direct PCI delivery is not required.
