Summary
The Sr. Director, Internal Audit and NGB Audit, leads the USOPC’s efforts to conduct compliance audits of National Governing Bodies (NGB) to assess NGBs’ adherence to the membership requirements set forth in the Ted Stevens Olympic and Amateur Sports Act, USOPC Bylaws, and other USOPC policies (collectively the “Requirements”). The Sr. Director’s goal, both directly and through NGB Audit staff, is to measure NGBs’ compliance with the Requirements and to help NGBs achieve organizational success.
The NGB Audit team ensures NGB adherence to the Requirements by:
1) performing audits against the USOPC’s Compliance Standards for NGBs and the accompanying Implementation Guide;
2) identifying areas of non‑compliance; and
3) conducting reviews to ensure that implementation of certain management action plans are operational and sustainable.
The Sr. Director will also lead the evaluation of the scale of a USOPC internal audit function and compliance audit function and will be responsible for the establishment of both functions, including developing an appropriately sized and scoped program using industry‑wide principals as benchmarks, working with the applicable oversight committee(s) to develop the scope and frequency of internal and compliance audits, and determining any staffing needs.
Additionally, the Sr. Director will oversee the strategy and day‑to‑day operations of the NGB Audit and USOPC internal audit and compliance audit programs.
The Sr. Director reports formally to the Chief Ethics & Compliance Office. The Sr. Director will also provide periodic reports on NGB Audit matters to the National Governing Body Oversight and Compliance Committee (NGBOC Committee) and will provide periodic reports to the applicable oversight committees for internal and compliance audits.
