Career Opportunities: Junior Group Internal Auditor (17566)

Are you ready to kick-start your career in an international environment where no two weeks are the same?

As Junior Group Internal Auditor, you will gain a unique insight into every aspect of Refresco's business. From visiting production sites across Europe and North America to working alongside senior business leaders, you will help identify opportunities to improve processes, strengthen controls, and support continuous improvement across our international organization.

This is much more than a traditional audit role. You will work as a trusted business partner, helping teams solve challenges, improve ways of working, identify and assess business risks, and contribute to Refresco's continued growth. Along the way, you will receive coaching from experienced Internal Auditors, rapidly develop your business knowledge, and build an international network across the organization.

Why join Internal Audit?

Few roles offer the same level of exposure to Refresco's international business. You will travel, work with colleagues across a wide range of functions, and gain first‑hand insight into how a global manufacturing organization operates. It is an excellent foundation for your future career, whether within Internal Audit, Finance, or the wider business.

Your role is built around four core responsibilities: internal audits, business partnering, continuous improvement and stakeholder collaboration.

What you will be doing

• Participate in audits across Refresco's Business Units in Europe, North America and the UK.
• Conduct audit fieldwork, including interviews, walkthroughs and testing activities.
• Analyse business processes, identify risks and improvement opportunities, and help develop practical recommendations.
• Provide support and insight to a broad range of stakeholders across the organization.
• Contribute to ad hoc reviews, investigations, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Prepare audit reports, present findings, and support the follow-up of agreed action plans.
• Support the modernization of the Internal Audit function by identifying opportunities to improve audit processes, reporting, and the use of data and analytics.

What you will bring

• Master's degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Economics, or a related field, completed or close to completion.
• Strong analytical skills and a genuine curiosity to understand how businesses operate.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the confidence and enthusiasm to build relationships across different cultures and functions.
• A proactive, hands‑on, and solution‑oriented mindset with a keen eye for detail
• Ability to manage multiple priorities and adapt to changing environments.
• Willingness and excitement to travel internationally for approximately 50% of your time.
• Experience with Power BI, dashboards, or data visualization tools is an advantage
• Fluent in English, both written and spoken. An additional European language is an advantage.
  
• And finally, you bring positive energy and are fun to work with!

Behind every drink is a team that makes it happen. Join ours.
