Job Description
As the Director of SOX Compliance, you will build, lead, and continuously improve the company's Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance program in support of a high-growth, public-company environment.
Reporting to the Corporate Controller (or Chief Accounting Officer), you will partner closely with Finance, Internal Audit, IT, Engineering, HR, Legal, and business leaders to ensure an effective internal control environment while enabling business growth. This is initially an individual contributor leadership role (Radford P6) with significant cross-functional influence and executive visibility.
As the organization grows, this role is expected to evolve into a people management position with responsibility for building and leading a SOX compliance team.
