Controls Testing & Data Analytics Lead Specialist

Job Description

Randstad is looking for a Controls Testing & Data Analytics Lead Specialist to join the Enterprise Fraud Risk Management team for a transportation client.. This fully remote, 12-month contract role bridges the gap between traditional internal audit and modern data analytics. Operating within a newly established fraud risk management program in the Finance department, you will evaluate, test, and continuously monitor control environments to mitigate a vast landscape of 180 financial, operational, and cyber fraud risks.

This position requires a vocal, detail-oriented professional who leverages data to build stronger safeguards from the ground up. You will manage hotline interactions, flag anomalous data, and compile structured insights to ensure seamless data handoffs to the Office of Inspector General (OIG) for formal investigation.

Key Responsibilities

Design, execute, and manage data-driven control testing procedures to identify gaps and vulnerabilities across enterprise-wide risk vectors.

Develop and implement continuous monitoring scripts and analytical models to track control effectiveness in real-time.

Manage hotline interactions and evaluate anomalous data flags to compile comprehensive, structured insights for clean handoffs to the OIG.

Collaborate with finance, internal stakeholders, and technology teams to help management build and optimize robust fraud control activities.

Provide proactive recommendations and vocal feedback to leadership to mature and better define the overarching fraud risk management framework.

Qualifications

Core Requirement: A strong, established background in Internal Audit, Control Testing, or SOX compliance is strictly required.

Proven technical capability to leverage data analytics (e.g., SQL, ACL, IDEA, or similar data tools) to automate and scale control testing rather than relying solely on manual auditing.

Thrives in an unstructured, evolving environment and possesses the problem-solving mindset necessary to establish processes where none currently exist.

Exceptional collaborative and vocal communication skills to actively influence control owners and make strategic process suggestions.

Location/Time Zone: Must be willing to work strict East Coast hours. Preference for candidates residing in the Northeast Corridor (specifically between Philadelphia, PA, Wilmington, DE, and Washington, D.C.), though strong remote talent will be considered.

Industry Experience: Experience auditing within transportation, construction, infrastructure, project-heavy environments, or the financial sector is highly preferred.
