Internal Controls, Provision 29 Consultant 3-6 month contract (£500-1,000/day)

Internal Controls Consultant (Contract)
Location: Remote - can be based anywhere in the UK&I (HQ is in London)
Term: 3-6 months contract

Are you an experienced interim/contract Internal Auditor or Controls professional, or between jobs for any reason (redundancy, etc.) and looking for your next short-term opportunity?

If so, I have an opportunity for you to join a leading organisation on a key Corporate Governance project, helping to enhance internal control frameworks and support compliance with the UK Corporate Governance Code (Provision 29).

We're looking for a detail-oriented Internal Controls Consultant to support our client's Group Risk, Internal Audit and Controls team. You'll play a key role in managing and improving the accuracy of our controls data within their Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) system.

What You'll Do

• Review and validate risk and control data to ensure completeness and accuracy.
• Prepare and upload data files into the GRC system and map risks to controls and verify data integrity.
• Run and analyse reports to ensure control information is correctly captured.
• Maintain and update remediation action plans, tracking progress in the system.
• Communicate regularly with action owners to follow up on updates and close out actions.
• Upload control evidence and supporting documentation.

What We're Looking For

• Experience in Internal Audit, Internal Controls, or Risk Management.
• Working knowledge of various GRC systems.
• Strong IT & computer skills (data validation, file preparation, excel, etc.).
• A methodical approach and strong attention to detail.
• Confidence communicating with stakeholders across finance and operational leadership teams.
• SOX or corporate governance experience is a plus, but not essential.
• Excellent soft skills - communication, stakeholder management, self-starter, etc.

This Role Would Suit Someone Who

• Comes from a practice or consultancy; or a commercial (IA/Internal Controls, etc.) background and is looking for an interim or project-based work.
• Enjoys a hands-on, delivery-focused role rather than a purely strategic one in the short-term.
• Is self-motivated, analytical, and comfortable working autonomously.

Why Join

• Nearly full remote (only HAVE to be with the team in London a couple of times a quarter - once a month, max.)
• Be part of a high-profile project with real business impact.
• Gain experience working on Corporate Governance Code (Provision 29) compliance - the fastest growing area of the governance profession in the UK
• Work with a flexible team, with a supportive team culture, in an IA & IC team seen as a trusted advisor.

Applicants looking for £500-£1,000 per day are welcome - please note that the rate desired will help the client decide who will be hired, however.
