As Senior Manager, Business Process (BP) SOX and Internal Controls, you will lead the BP workstream of Volta's SOX implementation programme, reporting to the VP, SOX and Internal Controls. You will play a critical role in building and embedding a robust internal controls environment across Volta's business processes as we scale toward and through an IPO-ready control framework. This is a hands-on, high-visibility role that combines strategic programme leadership with direct execution - from scoping and designing controls to testing, remediating gaps, and engaging senior stakeholders across Finance, IT, HR, Procurement, and Legal. You will help shape how Volta manages risk and controls as a fast-growing, founder-led enterprise operating at the frontier of AI infrastructure.

What You Will Be Doing:

  • Develop and periodically update SOX scoping and the BP workstream plan in consultation with the VP, SOX and Internal Controls.
  • Lead the independent delivery of the BP workstream, ensuring timely completion of controls design and testing for all in-scope processes.
  • Provide inputs for remediation of control gaps, and pragmatic recommendations that are practical to implement and meet Sarbanes-Oxley Act requirements.
  • Coordinate on an ongoing basis with management and external auditors, and agree remediation approaches with business teams.
  • Provide regular SOX BP updates to the VP, SOX and Internal Controls for SOX SteerCo, Executive Committee, and Audit Committee meetings.
  • Contribute inputs to the VP, SOX and Internal Controls for the year-end impact assessment.
  • Manage senior stakeholders across Finance, IT, HR, Procurement, Legal, and Audit teams.
  • Build and maintain the BP SOX team in consultation with the VP, SOX and Internal Controls.
  • Provide hands-on support to the business in effectively executing controls and completing remediation efforts.
  • Deliver training and guidance to process owners and Heads of Department on key SOX requirements.

What You Bring:

  • 6-8 years' experience working on and leading SOX Business Process programmes.
  • Experience working on IPO SOX readiness highly desirable.
  • Experience in Enterprise Risk Management and Internal Audit desirable.
  • Big 4 experience preferred, though not mandatory.
  • Strong knowledge of the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
  • Effective written, verbal, and presentation communication skills, with the ability to communicate, challenge, and influence constructively.
  • Collaborative team player with a positive, flexible, and hands-on attitude, and strong project management skills.
  • Proven experience communicating and engaging at a senior level across multiple departments, and willingness to travel internationally.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary based on the work you do here, not your previous salary.
  • Equity in Volta, giving you the opportunity to share in the company's long-term success.
  • Retirement/pension contributions.
  • Comprehensive health, wellbeing and insurance benefits.
  • Generous number of vacation days each year.
