Job Title
Manager – Global Risk, Controls and Policy Governance (Finance)
Role Overview
The Manager, Global Risk, Controls and Policy Governance is responsible for helping sustain and advance the Company's finance governance framework through leadership in policy governance, risk management, and controls oversight. The role serves as a trusted advisor to Finance, Technology, and business stakeholders, helping ensure governance practices remain effective, scalable, and aligned with the Company's strategic objectives.
Working across a broad range of initiatives, this position provides guidance on policy governance, risk management, internal controls, business process changes, technology implementations, and emerging business requirements. While supporting compliance obligations, including SOX, the role has a broader mandate focused on strengthening governance and risk management practices across the organization.
The ideal candidate is collaborative, intellectually curious, and self-directed, with the ability to independently assess complex situations, develop practical recommendations, and influence stakeholders across multiple functions and levels of the organization.
Key Responsibilities
Finance Policy Governance
+ Lead the governance, maintenance, and continuous improvement of the Company's finance policy framework.
+ Oversee the full lifecycle of finance policies and procedures, including development, review, approval, communication, implementation, periodic maintenance, and retirement.
+ Translate accounting standards, regulatory requirements, and governance expectations into practical and actionable guidance for business stakeholders.
+ Maintain policy governance processes, including ownership, version control, exception management, and periodic review requirements.
+ Promote consistency and scalability through standardized policy structures, documentation practices, and governance requirements.
+ Facilitate cross-functional discussions related to policy development, interpretation, implementation, and compliance.
Risk & Controls Governance
+ Support the governance and ongoing enhancement of the Company's risk and controls framework across finance, technology, and business processes.
+ Partner with stakeholders to identify, assess, and respond to financial reporting, operational, compliance, and technology-related risks.
+ Provide advisory support on the design, implementation, and sustainability of governance processes and internal controls.
+ Support control modernization and continuous improvement efforts as processes, systems, and business models evolve.
+ Advise business leaders on risk mitigation strategies and practical governance solutions that support organizational objectives.
+ While this role supports the Company's SOX compliance program, responsibilities extend beyond SOX to broader governance, risk management, business process, technology, and policy-related initiatives.
Technology & Business Change Advisory
+ Provide governance, risk, and controls advisory support for ERP implementations, system enhancements, acquisitions, process redesigns, and strategic business initiatives.
+ Partner with Finance, Technology, PMO, and business leaders to assess risk implications associated with organizational and technology changes.
+ Evaluate automated controls, interfaces, workflows, and technology-enabled processes that support business operations and financial reporting.
+ Promote the incorporation of governance and control considerations into project planning and execution activities.
Required Skills and Qualifications
Education
+ Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field.
Experience
+ 7+ years of progressive experience in financial controls, controllership, audit, or risk management within public accounting and/or complex corporate environments.
+ Demonstrated experience supporting SOX compliance, external audits, ERP implementations, and process or system transformations.
Technical and Professional Knowledge
+ Strong understanding of SOX, COSO, GAAP, and risk assessment methodologies.
+ Solid working knowledge of financial systems, system integrations, and technology‑enabled and automated controls.
+ Proven ability to design, draft, and govern finance policies and procedures within a structured governance framework.
Critical Success Factors
+ Ability to influence and build credibility without direct authority.
+ Strong business acumen and risk-based decision-making capabilities.
+ Highly self-directed with a demonstrated ability to work independently.
+ Executive presence and the ability to engage effectively with senior leaders.
+ Strong judgment and the ability to balance governance, risk, and business objectives.
