LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Scott Suzuki, who has 22 years of auditing experience assessing and improving organizations in both the public and private sector, has been named the general auditor of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California.
Suzuki, who will report directly to Metropolitan's Board of Directors, will begin in his new role on Feb. 6. He succeeds Gerald C. Riss, who retired in 2022 after 20 years as Metropolitan's general auditor.
"I look forward to working with Mr. Suzuki, as he brings a wealth of leadership experience, knowledge, and integrity that will serve Metropolitan well in ensuring our practices and approaches best serve our Southern California service area," said board Chair Adán Ortega, Jr.
As general auditor, Suzuki will independently review internal controls, financial records and reports, develop a flexible annual audit plan, determine compliance with bond covenants and applicable laws and regulations, ensure that assets and resources are properly accounted for and safeguarded against waste, loss or misuse, and administer Metropolitan's contract for audit services with an independent public accounting firm.
