Job Description & Summary

At PwC, our people in audit and assurance focus on providing independent and objective assessments of financial statements, internal controls, and other assurable information, enhancing the credibility and reliability of this information with a variety of stakeholders. They evaluate compliance with regulations including assessing governance and risk management processes and related controls.

Those in internal audit at PwC help build, optimise, and deliver end-to-end internal audit services to clients in all industries. This includes IA function setup and transformation, cosourcing, outsourcing, and managed services using AI and other risk technology and delivery models. IA capabilities are combined with other industry and technical expertise in areas like cyber forensics and compliance to address the full spectrum of risks. This helps organisations harness the power of IA to protect value, navigate disruption, and obtain confidence to take risks to power growth.
