Auditor, Business Aligned Technology

Are you a sharp evaluator of risk, who enjoys evaluating complex business processes and products? Do you want to play a key role in improving the effectiveness of business critical processes to help safeguard and strengthen UBS? Can you be an ambassador of new ways of working and culture? Do you enjoy creating an environment where teams are empowered, use their professional judgement and are encouraged to take collective responsibility for their audit delivery

At UBS, we have re-imagined the way we work, the way we connect with each other – our colleagues, clients and partners – and the way we deliver value. Being agile will make us more responsive, more adaptable, and ultimately more innovative.

We’re looking for an IT Auditor/Senior IT Auditor to:

• apply their technology expertise leading or working as a team member on regional and global audits, covering a wide range of technology topics, including thematic and front to back audits
• identify and evaluate the effectiveness of controls designed to address IT risks such as Production Stability, Cyber and Information Security, Data Protection and Confidentiality, Third-party risk management and Business Continuity Management as well as business automated controls. Additionally, provide practical, innovative and value-added recommendations to issues identified
• document and communicate audit issues, root causes and risks to stakeholders and UBS senior management including preparation of audit reports
• monitor IT risk profile and developments across UBS business aligned technology divisions and provide input for audit planning sessions
• review issue remediation activities completed by Technology, to assess whether these have sustainably addressed relevant risks/root causes of the issues
• develop and maintain relationships with auditees including senior management
