• Leading team meetings and working sessions, and coaching and developing team members in audit methodology and technology risk.
• Completing supervisory reviews of audit files and supporting hands-on execution where needed, including walkthroughs, testing and documentation.
• Delivering high-quality audits on time and within budget, and producing clear, impactful reports that set out risks, control gaps and business impact.
• Building strong stakeholder relationships and influencing improvements in the control environment.
• Contributing insight on emerging risks and industry developments, and supporting Internal Audit initiatives and continuous improvement.
