• To manage, on a day to day basis, clients allocated to the post holder by the Director of Audit.
• To ensure that all administrative forms are completed fully and submitted by the due dates.
• Ensure all audits are carried out in the agreed timescales and in accordance with our quality requirements.
• To participate in business development, and tender presentations to potential new clients.

The requirements:
