• Review quantitative workpapers to ensure quality, rigor, and effective challenge.
• Lead and coordinate audit activities, including planning, execution, documentation review, and delivery of audit results in alignment with Internal Audit methodology.
• Monitor audit progress, timelines, resourcing, and deliverables while adjusting as risks or priorities evolve.
• Identify, draft, and validate audit issues; assess management action plans; and participate in issue validation activities.
• Support department-wide risk assessment, project monitoring, and identification of emerging risks.
• Coach and support team members through collaboration, feedback, onboarding support, and shared learning.
