Our Company
Changing the world through digital experiences is what Adobe's all about. We give everyone-from emerging artists to global brands-everything they need to design and deliver exceptional digital experiences! We're passionate about empowering people to create beautiful and powerful images, videos, and apps, and transform how companies interact with customers across every screen.
We're on a mission to hire the very best and are committed to creating exceptional employee experiences where everyone is respected and has access to equal opportunity. We realize that new ideas can come from everywhere in the organization, and we know the next big idea could be yours! The Opportunity As the global Senior Director of IT SOX Compliance and Operational Audit, you will be responsible for leading all aspects of compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) requirements for IT services and systems as well as supervising non-SOX IT and cybersecurity operational audits. Reporting to the Vice President of Internal Audit/Chief Audit Executive, this person will be a key member of our internal audit leadership team. You will collaborate in the annual audit planning process, enterprise risk management activities, Audit Committee communications, and driving data-based operational efficiency and effectiveness. The ideal candidate is a leader capable of driving significant change. A strong people-leader capable of building high-performing teams and who understands and is able to communicate business context with IT risk. Has strong communication skills to influence and align partners (including senior leaders) in order to manage risk, protect Adobe, drive transparency, and deliver results in execution. What you'll do: Lead a comprehensive SOX IT compliance program, including scoping and planning, policies, procedures, and controls, to ensure adherence to regulatory requirements. Lead a non-SOX IT focused audit program including annual audit strategy, audit planning, conducting regular reviews and assessments to evaluate the effectiveness of existing controls and identify areas for improvement. Stay informed about updates in regulatory requirements and industry standards for SOX IT compliance, and ensure our SOX program is in line with these changes. Manage the relationship with our external auditors and service partners. Own, invest in, and grow trusted business relationships with your key partners at the VP, Sr. Director, and Director levels. Enable your team to do more than communicate audit outcomes - build a team and a culture that is focused on business context, insights, risks, and relevance. Drive timely execution of audits. Help drive a cohesive view of risk with the second line of defense - working cross functionally with senior leaders in our partner teams such as legal, compliance, privacy, security, technology services, and others. Lead and mentor a team of IT compliance professionals, providing guidance and support in their professional development. What you'll need to succeed: Experience leading and developing a distributed team to exceptional performance. Experience bringing complex business challenges to resolution, by driving alignment across functions and focusing on timely delivery. Experience leading an exceptional SOX program; understands the business context of the whole SOX process, not just IT. Ability to cultivate a team environment with high expectations and accountability and where the team feels comfortable discussing and learning from mistakes. Role model sincerity, integrity, and the highest ethical standards. Ability to break down silos to achieve shared objectives. Exceptional written and verbal communication skills and an ability to tailor communications to the level of the audience (including executive team and board). Bring business context and relevance to audits and findings - don't just articulate outcomes. Previous experience working at one of the Big 4 firms in an audit or advisory capacity and a deep understanding SEC, SOX, IIA, and PCAOB requirements. Ability to work in a fast-paced environment and appropriately prioritize for your team.
