Controls Analyst at NEP Group, Inc. in NC

Job description

• NEP is seeking a Revenue Controls Analyst to confirm that controls designed to prevent revenue leakage are implemented effectively, operating as intended, and supported by reliable evidence.

Responsibilities

• Maintain the control register, including control owners, operating procedures and required evidence.
• Design and execute testing programmes covering control design effectiveness and operating effectiveness.
• Test AI-enabled controls, including input completeness, rule changes, output review and audit trails.
• Sample and assess overrides where quotes, invoices or commitments were released despite a control exception.
• Track exceptions through resolution, report ageing items and identify root causes.
• Confirm remediation is implemented and operating effectively, rather than simply being promised.
• Support control handovers, governance reporting and the wider internal control agenda.

Requirements

• Professional qualification or part-qualification in audit, accounting or internal control—such as ACA, ACCA, CIA, CIMA or equivalent experience.
• Three to five years’ experience in internal audit, internal control, risk or control testing within a complex organization.
• Practical experience testing both control design and operating effectiveness and documenting results to a standard suitable for external review.
• Working knowledge of process-level financial controls, ideally across order-to-cash activities.
• Strong data skills, including extracting, sampling, reconciling and interrogating system reports; advanced Excel skills are required.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the confidence to explain findings, root causes and recommended improvements to non-technical audiences.
• Ability to work independently across multiple business units and time zones while constructively challenging control owners and following remediation through to completion.
• Experience testing automated, system-based or IT general controls.
• Exposure to continuous control monitoring, analytics-driven controls or AI-enabled processes.
• Experience working in a multi-entity, multi-currency international organization.
• Familiarity with order-to-cash processes in a project- or job-based business, such as media, broadcast, engineering or construction.
• Experience with SOX or an equivalent formal control framework.
