    • Verify supporting data for sample selections requested by auditors.
    • Reconcile account balances and ensure variance explanations are documented.

    Compliance & Controls:

    • Ensure compliance with GAAP/IFRS standards and internal policies.
    • Support SOX testing and other regulatory requirements if applicable.
    • Document findings and escalate discrepancies to managers.

    Collaboration:

    • Work with accounting, finance, HR, and operations teams to gather records.
    • Partner with external auditors during fieldwork, responding to requests in a timely manner.

    Reporting & Documentation:

    • Comfortable working with confidential and sensitive data.
    • Able to balance deadlines and multiple audit requests simultaneously.

    Required Experience & Skills (Minimum):

    • 12 years experience in audit support, accounting, or finance.
    • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel/Google Sheets (pivot tables, vlookups, reconciliations).
    • Familiarity with accounting software (QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP, or Oracle).
    • Strong written and verbal communication skills.

    Ideal Experience & Skills:

    • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field.
    • Exposure to SOX, PCAOB, or industry-specific compliance standards.
    • Experience supporting external auditors in public accounting or internal audit teams.
    • Knowledge of risk management and internal control frameworks (COSO, ISO).

    What Does a Typical Day Look Like? An Audit Assistant's day revolves around collecting, organizing, and verifying data for audit teams. You will:

    • Start by reviewing the audit request list, prioritizing urgent items.
    • Prepare reconciliations and schedules to support financial statement balances.
    • Respond to auditor requests, pulling invoices, contracts, and transaction details.
    • Assist in control testing, documenting walkthroughs or providing evidence of compliance.
    • Update audit trackers to monitor open requests and deadlines.
    • Wrap up by summarizing progress, escalating outstanding issues, and preparing documents for the next day.

    In essence: you ensure audits are efficient, accurate, and fully supported with audit-ready documentation.

    • Accuracy of reconciliations and schedules prepared.
    • Zero material audit findings due to missing documentation.
