About this opportunity

As an Audit Manager you’ll contribute to the delivery of high-quality audits. Lead audits or elements of large audits in accordance with the agreed plan, with relative autonomy, harnessing a deep understanding of business strategy/priorities, controls, and risks to provide high quality independent assurance on the effectiveness of controls.

Day to day, you will

• Contribute to the audit plan, supporting the portfolio lead by project managing individual audits on their behalf.
• Support control testing and identify areas of concern, articulating the potential challenge.
• Support senior colleagues build meaningful stakeholder relationships whilst making their own connections.
• Proactively suggest & deliver improvements in current compliance processes by being bold.
• Support in building and developing automation tools, and AI solutions to drive efficiencies and innovation in the function.
• Conduct research considering multiple perspectives and brings the outside in to enable analysis of key themes and external trends.
• Actively role model the Group values and behaviours.
• Put the team first by coaching with purpose, being present with the team and openly communicating expectations.
• Freely share insight and timely, direct, effective feedback that contributes to the success of the delivery plan and leaves a positive, sustainable impact on the function.

What you’ll need:

• Experience of leading and performing audits of application layer public and private cloud controls, software development lifecycle, modern engineering practices and tools. Good understanding of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and application within business processes.
• Experience of identifying key risks associated with the use of technology in business processes, applying IT controls knowledge to audit automated business controls, and influence implementation of controls by design during transformation initiatives. Highly skilled in writing and agreeing high quality findings and audit reports.
• Ability to lead and take ownership for delivery, prioritize your work and that of others effectively to ensure timely and valuable delivery and championing colleagues' growth and development.
• Ability to lead teams in planning and completing audits of change controls either through thematic or outcome focused audits.
• The ability to deliver risk and control assurance activity that is timely, impactful, insightful and valuable.
• Critical thinking ability to use internal, external, business and, technology information to provide forward-looking and impactful insights on current and emerging risks and opportunities.

And any experience of these would be really useful:

• Knowledge of how to use or apply data analytics to drive impact audit outcomes, continuous risk monitoring and data analysis.
• Retail, Commercial or Insurance application or change transformation audit experience.
• Payments audits experience in front-to-back processes, technology and a good understanding of regulatory environment in Payments.
• Whilst not a pre-requisite, relevant professional qualifications would be a plus such as Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA), Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer, Azure Security Engineer Associate or equivalent.
