Finance in a Box (FIAB) is a US-based accounting and finance outsourcing firm delivering Big 4 quality at the speed and cost that growth-stage and mid-market companies need. Founded by ex-Ernst & Young professionals, FIAB serves 40,000+ users across e-commerce, SaaS, healthtech and retail.

We are looking for an IT SOX Controls Director who can design, build, implement, and report on the internal controls framework for a US-listed company in the initial phases of SOX design and implementation with complex systems.

This is not a testing role. You will walk into a client environment, map the technology landscape, identify control gaps, and build a complete ITGC and ITAC framework from the ground up.

What You Will Do:
- Engage with client IT leadership to map financial reporting systems, data flows and in-scope applications
- Design ITGCs from scratch across all five domains — Access, Change Management, Computer Operations, Backup & Recovery, IT Governance
- Identify and document automated controls (ITAC) in financial applications and map reliance chain for auditors
- Build the Risk & Control Matrix (RCM) from scratch — aligned to financial statement line items and business process cycles
- Present and defend the control framework to senior client stakeholders and external auditors

- Big 4 IT advisory or IT audit background — mandatory (Deloitte, PwC, EY or KPMG)
- 10+ years in IT audit, IT risk or SOX advisory — with meaningful time in controls design, not just testing
- Demonstrated ability to build an ITGC/ITAC framework and RCM independently for a new client engagement
- Strong knowledge of ITGC domains, ITAC methodology and COSO/COBIT frameworks
- Experience with large ERPs — SAP or Oracle preferred; e-commerce or retail environment is a plus
- Confident communicator — comfortable presenting to C-suite and producing audit-ready documentation
- Florida-based or willing to relocate to West Palm Beach, FL (no relocation support provided)
- Immediate availability preferred — start within 30 days
