Job Description

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an experienced internal audit professional to join a growing risk advisory team at Assistant Manager level within a Top 10 firm in London. This would suit someone looking to take the next step towards management while gaining exposure to a varied portfolio of clients and assignments.

The role offers a good balance between hands-on internal audit delivery and engagement management. You'll lead audits and specialist assignments, support planning and project management, manage elements of a client portfolio and build relationships with senior stakeholders.

You'll also have the opportunity to develop your leadership skills, including supporting and coaching junior auditors, while gaining exposure to different businesses, risks and control environments. There is also scope to work with data analytics and emerging AI-enabled audit techniques.

Candidates should have relevant internal audit, risk or controls experience, ideally alongside a professional qualification (or be working towards one). Strong communication skills, commercial awareness and the confidence to challenge stakeholders constructively will be important.

You must already hold full UK working rights and have relevant UK-based experience. Unfortunately, visa sponsorship is not available for this opportunity.

Hybrid working is on offer, and the expectation is to be in the office 3 days a week (with flexibility!)
