Senior SOX Analyst

About the role

In this role you will support Crunchyroll's company-wide SOX program, including annual planning and scoping, control documentation, process-owner enablement, evidence standards, testing coordination, issue remediation, and program reporting. A core responsibility will be building a consistent SOX operating model across the company and training process and control owners on control execution, documentation expectations, and the evidence required to demonstrate effective performance.

You will partner across Accounting, Finance, Technology, and business teams to understand end-to-end processes, maintain audit-ready documentation, and drive timely resolution of control issues. Success will be measured by a well-governed SOX program, clear accountability among control owners, high-quality evidence, and scalable internal control processes.

In the role of Senior SOX Analyst, you will report to the Director of General Accounting and be part of the Corporate Accounting Team.

We are considering applicants for our Los Angeles Office.
