## Description

As the business continues to evolve, its Internal Audit function is growing, creating an excellent opportunity for a Senior Internal Auditor with strong IT Controls experience to join an established team.

This is a broad Internal Audit position with a strong focus on IT Controls, rather than a traditional IT Audit role. We are looking for someone with a solid grounding in wider Internal Audit, alongside hands-on experience testing IT General Controls. Candidates with an IT Audit background will be considered where this is complemented by experience delivering broader Internal Audit engagements.

You'll lead assurance engagements across the business, assessing the effectiveness of internal controls, providing practical recommendations and helping to strengthen governance, risk management and the overall control environment.

About the Position

As Senior Internal Auditor, you will take ownership of audit engagements from planning through to reporting, working closely with stakeholders across the organisation to assess risks, evaluate controls and identify opportunities for improvement.

A key element of the role will involve testing and reviewing IT General Controls, including access management, change management and IT operations. However, this is fundamentally an Internal Audit role rather than a traditional IT Audit position.

You will need to be comfortable taking a broader, risk-based approach to assurance, applying professional judgement, understanding the wider business context and recognising that effective internal auditing goes beyond simply assessing whether a control has passed or failed.

Day-to-day, you'll:

 * Plan and deliver a range of internal audit engagements, including risk assessments, control testing and reporting.
 * Review and assess the effectiveness of IT General Controls, including user access, change management and IT operations.
 * Evaluate technology-related risks and controls across business systems, applications and wider IT environments.
 * Undertake broader internal audit reviews, considering operational, financial, business and technology-related risks.
 * Identify control weaknesses, assess their wider business impact and develop practical recommendations.
 * Produce clear, commercially focused audit reports and present findings to key stakeholders.
 * Agree management actions and monitor their implementation.
 * Contribute to the wider audit plan, working collaboratively with colleagues and co-sourced assurance partners., This is an opportunity to join a growing Internal Audit function where you can combine your broader internal audit experience with your knowledge of IT controls.

You'll have genuine ownership of audit engagements, exposure to a complex business environment and the opportunity to work with stakeholders across the organisation, helping to strengthen the overall control environment.

The position would particularly suit an Internal Auditor currently working in industry who has responsibility for both wider business audits and IT controls, or someone from professional practice who has developed experience across both Internal Audit and IT Audit.

If you're an Internal Auditor who understands technology risks, can confidently test IT General Controls and enjoys taking a broader, risk-based approach to assurance, this could be an excellent next step in your career.
