As a subject matter expert, you'll partner with business leaders to translate SOX compliance requirements into internal Verizon control guidance and enforce a strong control environment. Your expertise will help drive process improvements, transparent reporting to executive management, and ensure the quality of management's Business Process SOX control testing.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead the administration of our SOX 404 program, including review of process and control documentation, management training, and establishment of management test plans.

  • Provide guidance, coaching, and development feedback to team members to help strengthen our team and support team members' professional growth.
  • Lead discussions with executive and senior management on key issues.
  • Assess the quality of management's Business Process SOX control testing and provide feedback to strengthen management's testing capabilities.
  • Develop and deliver training to stakeholders on Business Process SOX control requirements to enforce a strong and compliant control environment.
  • Understand both business process and IT-related risks/controls to identify control efficiency opportunities, identify control gaps, and perform system scoping activities.
  • Facilitate communication between our external auditors and control owners to ensure there is a clear understanding of audit requests and to identify solutions when issues arise.
  • Prepare and present materials on status updates and SOX methodology.
  • Lead pre-implementation reviews of new financial systems and associated tools to enforce compliance with SOX control requirements.
  • Build relationships with business leaders, external auditors, and other Verizon compliance teams.

What We're Looking For:

  • A Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or Economics, or four or more years of experience.
  • Six or more years of relevant work experience.
  • A Professional certification (CPA, CMA, CIA, CISA, CFE, PMP).
  • Six or more years of experience in Accounting/Finance, with a minimum 6+ years in a public accounting firm or large organization.
  • Six or more years of hands-on experience addressing financial reporting controls.
  • Six or more years of experience in developing and executing audit/test procedures.
  • Six or more years of leadership experience directly managing teams.
  • Extremely broad-based knowledge and experience with controls standards and frameworks.
  • Advanced knowledge of Sarbanes-Oxley requirements, best practices, and testing procedures.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • A Master's degree in Business Administration, Accounting, Finance, or Economics.
  • Experience designing and implementing controls governance frameworks and compliance programs.
  • Experience leveraging audit principles and methods to evaluate policies, processes, and systems.
  • Experience in resolving accounting/controls issues with national offices of Big 4 accounting firms.
  • Working knowledge of digital finance, statistics, reporting, and analytical tools.

Work Environment:

This hybrid role will have a defined work location that includes work from home and a minimum eight assigned office days per month that will be set by your manager.

Equal Employment Opportunity:

We're proud to be an equal opportunity employer - and celebrate our employees' differences, including race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, and Veteran status. At Verizon, we know that diversity makes us stronger. We are committed to a collaborative, inclusive environment that encourages authenticity and fosters a sense of belonging.
