  • Ensure compliance with audit policies, minimum standards, methodology, and documentation requirements.
  • Recommend improvements in quality, workflows, processes, documentation, and control design.
  • Use data analysis and digital audit techniques to support audit testing, identify patterns, and generate insights where appropriate.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement and knowledge sharing within the audit team.

What you bring

  • Good knowledge of audit processes, procedures, and concepts, with the ability to apply them in practical audit work.
  • Understanding of internal controls, risk management, governance, regulatory expectations, and information security management.
  • Ability to perform audit tasks with guidance in new or demanding situations and increasing independence in familiar audit assignments.
  • Analytical thinking, data-mining capability, root-cause analysis, and problem-solving skills.
  • Good communication skills, with the ability to exchange information clearly and logically with auditees, stakeholders, and team members.
  • Professional curiosity, integrity, trust, team spirit, self-motivation, and commitment to continuous learning.
  • Ability to understand different stakeholder perspectives and work effectively in an international environment.
  • Interest in IT, data analytics, automation, and AI-enabled audit techniques is highly welcome.

Qualifications & Experience
