What does our internal audit team do? Internal auditing is an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve an organisation’s operations. It helps an organisation accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance. A career in internal audit will provide you with the knowledge of how different organisations work from NHS Trusts, educational organisations, charities, housing, financial services, corporates, local and central government and other types of organisations. By having this exposure gives you a great foundation to build your business knowledge. We have a varied client base, for which we have Periodic Internal Plan’s which are delivered on an annual basis. We carry out visits throughout the year and undertake fieldwork which results in documenting controls, testing strategies and our findings. Audit reports are then written to provide the client and Audit Committee with the overall findings and management actions to address any improvement areas we identify. You’ll be advising clients on how they can better manage their strategic, financial and operational risks. Organisations today face a number of risks that can stop them from achieving their goals. Our audit plans are aligned to the clients Risk Registers which ensure that the key systems and control processes across a range of functions including finance, HR and governance are assessed to manage the potential risks and achieve their objectives What can you expect?
