Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada Emera Inc. Full time

At Emera, you'll be part of an inclusive, respectful workplace where everyone is welcomed and supported. Come build a career as unique as you are: making an impact from Atlantic Canada to the world, supporting the effective management of Emera Canadian Affiliate (Nova Scotia Power (NSPI)) and Emera US Affiliate (Tampa Electric Company (TEC)) information technology (IT) operations. If working in an innovative environment, challenging yourself, and shaping a cleaner energy future inspires you, we want to hear from you.

We are currently looking for a Manager, IT Internal Controls & Compliance to join our team in a permanent position. This is a key business role within the Emera Finance team. Reporting to the Director Internal Controls & Compliance, Finance, you will work closely with IT leadership and technology specialists across a large, diverse, and complex organization overseeing the execution of IT controls in support of all Emera-wide SOX requirements.

Emera is currently investing in an abundance of new technologies. Based on insights gained from expertise, you will provide proactive and reliable counsel on the development of new IT control practices ensuring the right balance between the time and cost impact of compliance with regulatory requirements, and mitigating risk. This partnership includes collaboration with Emera Audit Services and third-party consultants to identify, evaluate, and recommend corrective action plans to reach cost-effective decisions when implementing or evaluating IT regulatory compliance.

As Manager, IT Internal Controls & Compliance, your responsibilities will include:

  • Oversee the management of centralized SOX deliverables over IT Applications, IT Tools, Databases and Operating Systems, by partnering with:
  • Key IT stakeholders at NSPI and TEC, to facilitate the IT scoping assessment performed by the Emera Affiliate IT Leadership.
  • Emera Audit Services and external auditors on the results of the IT scoping outcomes, especially any key technology changes anticipated in the current year program.
  • Finance and Strategic Planning departments to consider the impacts on the SOX program on upcoming IT investments and implementation progress.
  • Facilitate the timely update/refresh of IT General Control and IT Application Control descriptions and controls documentation by the Affiliate IT stakeholders.
  • Provide advice to Affiliate IT Management and perform an initial evaluation of their response to IT deficiencies identified by Audit Services or external auditors.
  • Proactively evaluate whether there are themes to deficiencies, or whether deficiencies identified in one Emera affiliate may also be applicable to another affiliate.
  • Build close working relationships with affiliate IT leadership and specialists, stay informed on risks and strategic initiatives impacting applicable affiliates, and gain consensus regarding potentially contentious or sensitive items.
  • Develop and oversee a continuing education program incorporating best practices over IT SOX requirements.

  • Ability to understand business risks, challenges and recognize opportunities for process improvements.

  • Seek to continuously improve the SOX program to become more efficient and effective through optimization and automation.

  • Perform limited quality control procedures over selected working papers across the IT organization to identify potential areas of SOX policy deviation.

The successful individual will have excellent interpersonal and relationship building skills and an ability to build consensus across an organization by consistently demonstrating credibility as a subject matter expert. You bring maturity, confidence, and decision-making capability, along with enthusiasm and energy.
