Job Description
A high-performing financial services organisation with a focus on investments is looking to hire a Senior Internal Auditor to join its Group Internal Audit function in London. This is an excellent opportunity to take ownership of end-to-end audit engagements while gaining exposure across a broad range of business areas including operations, regulatory compliance, governance, risk and technology.
In this role, you will lead audits from planning through to reporting, identifying key risks, developing robust testing approaches and delivering clear, impactful insights to senior stakeholders. You will engage directly with management to challenge constructively, agree pragmatic recommendations and support improvements in the control environment. There is also scope to contribute to advisory work, support audit committee reporting and play a role in enhancing audit methodology and innovation, including the use of data analytics and emerging technologies.
The position suits a qualified auditor with experience in financial services, ideally from an internal audit background. You will bring strong technical audit skills, the ability to manage audits independently and confidence engaging with senior stakeholders. A proactive mindset, strong communication skills and an interest in continuous improvement are key.
This is a collaborative, forward-thinking team with a strong reputation and a focus on quality and development. You will benefit from a supportive environment that offers real ownership of work, exposure to senior stakeholders and a good work/life balance, alongside opportunities to get involved in advisory projects and innovation initiatives.
If you are looking for a role where you can take responsibility, broaden your experience and be part of a high-quality audit function, this is a strong next step.
