Kforce has a client that is seeking a Director of Audit (Large Global Life-Sciences) in Boston, MA. This role follows a Hybrid work model (2-3 days per week in office). Summary: Our client, a highly respected global life sciences organization, is seeking an experienced Internal Audit Director to join its leadership team. This is a unique opportunity to step into a high-impact role within a blue-chip company recognized for innovation, operational excellence, and a strong commitment to developing future leaders. Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
  • Join a global market leader with an outstanding reputation and strong financial performance
  • Highly visible leadership role with regular interaction and presentation exposure to executive management
  • Lead and develop a global internal audit team while helping shape the organization's long-term audit strategy
  • Dynamic, project-driven environment supporting a broad range of financial and operational initiatives across the business
Exceptional career growth potential, including:
  • Succession path to Head of Internal Audit
  • Rotational leadership opportunities throughout the organization
  • Potential progression into operational finance and Business Unit CFO-track positions
Key Responsibilities:
  • Lead and execute a global internal audit strategy aligned with organizational objectives and risk priorities
  • Manage complex financial, operational, and compliance audits across multiple business functions and geographies
  • Partner with executive and business leadership to identify risks, strengthen controls, and improve business performance
  • Mentor, develop, and inspire a high-performing global audit team
  • Present audit findings, recommendations, and risk assessments to senior leadership and stakeholders
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives across audit methodologies, talent development, and operational effectiveness

Requirements:

  • Progressive internal audit leadership experience within a large multinational organization
  • Public accounting foundation strongly preferred
  • Experience leading global teams and managing complex, cross-functional audit projects
  • Strong executive presence and ability to influence senior stakeholders
  • Broad understanding of operational, financial, and business process risks
  • CPA, CIA, or equivalent certification preferred

The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs. This range may be modified in the future.

We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off. Hourly employees are not eligible for paid time off unless required by law. Hourly employees on a Service Contract Act project are eligible for paid sick leave.

Note: Pay is not considered compensation until it is earned, vested and determinable. The amount and availability of any compensation remains in Kforce's sole discretion unless and until paid and may be modified in its discretion consistent with the law.

This job is not eligible for bonuses, incentives or commissions.
