Services are specialized to help clients mitigate risks across an overall risk spectrum. We are currently seeking an IT Advisory Senior Associate to join us in our Albany office.

Our IT Audit professionals help organizations enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of critical in-house governance, internal audit and regulatory compliance functions. By focusing on regulatory and compliance, help clients proactively comply with regulatory requirements (including SOX regulations) as well as effectively secure and monitor systems and data to help improve the compliance functions. We help mitigate regulatory and compliance risks that could lead to losses from non-compliance, litigation, or regulatory sanctions and fines.

• Plan and execute the day-to-day activities of IT audit engagements for a variety of clients including system development, package implementation and/or platform reviews

• Bachelor’s degree in an appropriate field from an accredited college/university
• Strong leadership and communication skills, technical knowledge, and the ability to write at a "publication" quality level in order to communicate findings and recommendations to the client’s senior management team
