• Prepare and present IT audit findings and updates to senior leadership and the Audit Committee
• Review IT policies, procedures, and standards for adequacy and compliance
• Identify process improvement opportunities and monitor remediation efforts

• Experience auditing complex systems, ERPs, and multi-entity environments
• Ability to translate technical issues into clear, business-focused recommendations
• Strong communication skills and comfort engaging with senior leadership
• Ability to manage multiple projects and work independently
• Willingness to travel across Canada and the US (up to approximately 40%)
• CPA or PMP designation is an asset but not required
