About the Opportunity
Our client is a publicly listed gold producer with operations across multiple countries. They are preparing for SOX compliance for the first time and need a dedicated program lead to get the organization ready.
This SOX Project Manager owns the remediation effort from planning through handoff. You will build the project plan, coordinate internal teams and external advisors to close control gaps, and report progress to senior finance leadership. You will also work hands-on with the data to support self-serve, real-time reporting, ideally in Workiva or a similar GRC tool.

- Coordinate remediation across internal teams and external subject matter experts
- Track progress, manage risks and issues, and escalate blockers early
- Prepare regular status reports and executive updates
- Improve data quality and support self-serve and real-time reporting
- Support additional remediation as new control gaps are identified
- Design and run the handoff to internal owners for steady-state control management
What You Bring
- Proven project or program management experience leading complex remediation, ERP or GRC tool implementations
- Direct SOX readiness experience, or closely related finance control remediation experience
- Experience working with external auditors and advisory firms on controls
- Strong stakeholder management across finance, technical and executive teams
- Clear written and verbal reporting skills
- Ability to start quickly and commit to an initial 6-month term
- Based in, or willing to work from, Vancouver, with monthly travel as needed
