Job description

How often do you get to present straight to the Board, not through three layers of management, but in the room, as the person doing the talking? That's what this role offers, and it's rare at this level.

This is a business that treats Internal Audit as a genuine driver of change, not a box ticking exercise. You'll report into the Internal Audit Manager, but your work won't stop at a report handed upward. You'll deliver risk based reviews across the business, get involved in project and change assurance including data analytics, sit in on steering groups, and build real relationships with senior stakeholders as you go.

What your week could look like:

• Planned and ad hoc audit reviews spanning the business
• Project and change assurance work, with a strong data analytics component
• Direct conversations with senior management on control issues, emerging trends, and practical fixes
• Producing and presenting formal audit reports straight to Senior Management, in person

What you'll bring:

• A relevant professional qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIA or similar)
• Strong audit experience, whether that's internal or external
• Financial Services background advantageous
• Confidence applying risk based audit techniques, with a working knowledge of change assurance and data analytics
• Technology audit exposure is a bonus, though not essential

What you will receive in return:

• Direct, regular access to Board and C suite stakeholders, well beyond what you'd expect at this level
• A business that backs its audit function to influence real change
• A genuine chance to build your profile with senior leadership early in your career

Whether your background is in internal audit or you've come from external audit with solid FS exposure, if you're ready for a role where your work is actually seen and heard by the people who make the decisions, this is worth a conversation.
