    Description

    About Northern Trust:

    Northern Trust, a Fortune 500 company, is a globally recognized, award-winning financial institution that has been in continuous operation since 1889.

    Northern Trust is proud to provide innovative financial services and guidance to the world's most successful individuals, families, and institutions by remaining true to our enduring principles of service, expertise, and integrity. With more than 130 years of financial experience and over 22,000 partners, we serve the world's most sophisticated clients using leading technology and exceptional service.

    • Design and administer controls related trainings to different stakeholders.

    • Willingness to learn the basics of GHG Accounting and obtain general knowledge related to the different climate reporting standards and Northern Trust's reporting requirements.
    • Ability to understand how the detailed activities in areas of focus fit into the larger climate accounting and reporting picture for individual legal entities and the Corporation as a whole.
    • Demonstrates professional skepticism and comfort with questioning how certain processes are being performed to facilitate making improvements.
    • Thinks critically and takes independent initiative to research inherent risks, emerging guidance, and issues relevant to processes and controls, and proposes solutions or enhancements as appropriate.
    • Utilizes understanding of various corporate units to ensure operations, services, and systems have proper controls in place.
    • Ability to meet strict deadlines, manage multiple projects and to work under pressure during peak periods.
    • Knowledge of GHG accounting requirements (preferred).
    • Experience with Northern Trust's BWise System a plus.
    • Experience in financial service industry a plus.
    • Certified Public Accountant or Certified Internal Auditor a plus.
