International Professional Services Business
Our client is a highly respected, employee-owned professional services business operating internationally across more than 30 countries. With over 17,000 employees and revenues more than £2bn, the organisation has an established global reputation for delivering complex, high-profile projects across the built environment. As part of the continued development of its Risk & Insurance function, the business has recently established a new Internal Audit team. They are now looking to appoint an Internal Auditor to help build out the function and support the development of a modern, risk-focused Internal Audit offering.
Description
This is a unique opportunity to join an Internal Audit function at a formative stage of its development. The business currently works with an external co-source provider but is looking to strengthen its internal capability and bring greater depth into the function. Reporting to the Associate Director of Internal Audit, the successful candidate will have significant exposure across the organisation and the opportunity to help shape how Internal Audit operates going forward.
The Internal Auditor role will involve delivering risk-based Internal Audit assignments from planning through to reporting, covering financial, operational, governance and compliance areas across the organisation. You will collaborate closely with internal stakeholders and the external co-source provider, reviewing audit work and producing clear, commercially focused reports with practical recommendations. You will also contribute to audit planning, monitor agreed actions, and help develop the function’s methodologies, processes, and ways of working.
Skills
We are looking for a qualified Internal Audit professional (ACA, ACCA, CIA or equivalent) with demonstrable end-to-end Internal Audit experience. You will have a strong understanding of risk-based auditing, governance, and internal controls, alongside the confidence to engage with senior stakeholders. Professional services, partnership, international or matrix experience would be advantageous. This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Internal Audit professional looking for greater breadth, senior stakeholder exposure, and the opportunity to genuinely influence the development of an Internal Audit function within a highly respected international business.
