 * Contribute to audit technology initiatives - Collaborate with internal teams, international member firms and external partners (such as startups or solution providers) to explore new technologies that can strengthen the audit practice.
 * Support pilots and implementations - Analyse the impact of new tools or methodology updates, help coordinate pilot projects and identify training or change management needs for our audit teams.
 * Communicate changes clearly - Produce concise guidance, change logs and practitioner updates whenever templates, processes or standards evolve.
