IT Compliance Auditor (No Sponsorship/No Remote)

About Us: We are a premier retailer known for our commitment to innovation, quality

and customer service. We are preparing to transition into a publicly-traded company

audit procedures to streamline evidence gathering and executing tests of IT General

Controls (ITGC). You will leverage technical and automated tools to validate

effectiveness of controls, while moving beyond manual checklists. You will work closely

with process owners, IT operations and engineering teams to interpret system data,

identify risks, and implement auditable technical solutions. This role is ideal for a

professional who combines strong audit & compliance fundamentals, with a mind for

designing innovative processes to streamline compliance requirements.
