Summary
Since 2004, Yelp has been connecting people with great local businesses, and we’re looking to grow our team with folks who are passionate about that mission. We’ve got offices across the country and have been rated a top employer by the San Francisco Business Journal.
Yelp really is in that sweet ‘Goldilocks’ spot of being a company that’s not too big or too small. Here you will have your voice and recommendations heard and get the chance to contribute to implementing things that will impact the business down the road and lay the foundation for years to come. It’s also a culture where auditors are not looked upon as ‘scary’ or the big bad wolf - people here will be receptive to your ideas and there is definitely not the bureaucratic negative energy that sometimes comes with being an auditor. The position will report to the Head of Audit, and will be based in our San Francisco headquarters.
Our internal audit team (or “YAR” as we like to call it, which stands for Yelp Assessment of Risk) is looking for an Internal Audit Manager. Our team works hard, but also has diverse interests outside of work too. We’re musicians, love to volunteer, family-oriented and are devout yoga enthusiasts and definitely embrace the Yelp value of “Be Unboring.”
Here are the details of the position!
The role will be responsible for evaluating risks and controls around the business. This position also includes oversight of Internal Audit’s Sarbanes-Oxley process, a highly visible and important effort. You will partner with other internal audit teams and Management to assess Financial, Operational, Technical and Strategic risks at Yelp over both the IT and Business Process spaces. You will have an oversight role and will work closely with our co-source partners and external audit groups for successful execution of technical work and overall project management. Beyond compliance work, there will be new and exciting projects along the way.
What You’ll Do:
• Initially, you’ll need to understand the business, know our revenue model, and develop a grasp of our underlying systems and applications while getting it figured out quickly. You’ll also get exposure to different people and teams and start building your relationships and trust with them. In addition, you will be working closely with our external audit team so experience building a strong professional relationship with them is key.
• Take responsibility for planning and executing on various elements of the overall audit plan, which would include risk assessment, audit scope, identifying and testing controls and developing specific recommendations to improve processes. You’ll be juggling many tasks, so a good grasp of project management will aid in this process.
• Assess the design of internal controls related to IT & Financial reporting processes and test or review the controls for operating effectiveness pursuant to our annual Sarbanes-Oxley 404 assessment process. This includes performing reviews over audit testing.
• Throughout the year we will execute several specialized projects that cover the major risk themes identified by Management, so be prepared to bring your wealth of experience and knowledge to tackle unique challenges and provide high-value to the company.
What We're Looking For in You:
• 6-8+ years in an auditing, IT and/or finance role, some of it at a large public company, preferably in the high-tech and/or telecom industry.
• Big 4 experience.
• CPA, CIA, CISA, Chartered Financial Accountant or appropriate equivalent technical certification.
• Experience with auditing high-tech / internet systems and risks.
• Ability to identify and assess a changing array of risks.
• Strong quantitative and qualitative research and analytical skills.
• Experience or interest in analyzing data.
• Experience in analyzing and testing both business process and IT controls.
• Be a great communicator - you can understand clearly communicate the story and big picture and are able to break down technical aspects and communicate why something is important and what the major risks might be in a way various stakeholders can understand.
Pursuant to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.
