Summary

Our Internal Audit team (or "YAR" as we call it, for Yelp Assessment of Risk) is looking for an Internal Audit Manager, Technology to support our team's Operational audit and SOX Compliance projects. The position will report to the Senior Manager, Internal Audit and Analytics.

Yelp is in that sweet ‘Goldilocks’ spot of being a company that’s not too big or too small. Here you will have your voice and recommendations heard and get the chance to contribute to implementing things that will impact the business down the road and lay the foundation for years to come. We're looking for an individual who brings enthusiasm and curiosity into their role. It’s a culture where auditors are not looked upon as ‘scary’ - people here will be receptive to your ideas! If you are interested in moving the bar instead of the bar moving you, then we'd like to speak with you.

A bit about us:

The YAR team was founded in 2014. Our team culture is driven by our values: we’re a cooperative team that values individual authenticity, and encourages creative solutions to problems. Our team works hard, but also has diverse interests outside of work too. We embrace the Yelp value of "Be Unboring!"
