About the role
We’re looking for an Engineering Operations Manager with previous SOX experience to lead large-scale engineering programmes and support engineering tribes with planning, coordination and operational improvements.
You’ll bring structure to complex programmes spanning multiple teams, turn broad priorities into clear delivery plans and help stakeholders resolve risks and dependencies. Alongside this broader remit, you’ll help engineering teams translate SOX requirements into coordinated action and establish sustainable ways of managing their control responsibilities.
This role suits someone who combines strong programme management with a practical, hands-on approach. You’ll be comfortable leading cross-functional initiatives, managing different stakeholders, partnering with engineering leaders and working through the operational details that keep programmes moving.
How we work
You’ll join a small Engineering Operations team, working across engineering and business functions. We bring clarity to complex work through practical planning, clear ownership and consistent follow-through.
You’ll partner with tribe leadership to strengthen planning and operational reviews, while working with control owners and colleagues in Risk, Compliance and Audit on SOX-related activities. You’ll coordinate delivery and provide visibility, with engineering teams and control owners retaining responsibility for technical decisions, control execution and evidence.
What you’ll achieve
What you’ll bring
Previous SOX or ITGC programme experience is important for this role. You don’t need to meet every other requirement: if you bring relevant experience and are eager to develop further, we’d love to hear from you.
