Internal Audit Supervisor; Financial Compliance Auditor Supervisor

Introduction

Maryland’s Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) program makes sure all workers in Maryland have paid time off for medical and family reasons. FAMLI is a social insurance system covering 2.6 million workers and 180,000 employers, delivered as a digitally native, public-facing service. We’re in the early stages of building something as big and as far-reaching as unemployment insurance or a new health department.

We know that delivering services primarily through a website, over the Internet, is a new way of doing business in government. The Financial Services Directorate is responsible for establishing and maintaining an efficient financial system, including internal controls and financial procedures, for the FAMLI Division. The Financial Services Directorate safeguards FAMLI funds and other assets, manages FAMLI contributions and benefits payouts, develops financial reports, prepares budgets and projections, and designs and conducts internal audits, as well as responding to external financial audits.

The Internal Audit Supervisor will work under the Internal Audit Manager to build the auditing function and lead auditing work for the FAMLI Division as a part of the Financial Services Directorate.
