IT Audit Manager

The IT Audit Manager will be responsible for;

• Independently leading and taking ownership of the end-to-end planning and execution of internal audit engagements in predominantly IT subject areas and IT change projects (though flexibility will also be required to deliver audits in non-IT areas as business needs arise).
• Conduct audit engagements in compliance with the IAS Internal Audit Methodology and diligently document the work undertaken in a structured, clear and concise manner to a standard that would be acceptable during an External Quality Assessment of the IAS function.
• Undertake planning activities for an assurance engagement where the route ahead may not always be clear to propose the scope and key risk areas for focus during the audit.
• Prepare and present excellent quality outputs (e.g. audit reports and closing meeting slides) with an eye for detail, to communicate key messages in a simple, succinct and balanced way to a range of stakeholders, helping to inform effective decision making.
• Apply judgement and propose recommendations to findings which are proportionate to the risk in question, written in a clear manner to facilitate its completion.
• Work collaboratively, in a friendly and professional manner in sometimes difficult situations to resolve conflict in the process of agreeing an audit report with the business.
• Capture agreed actions arising from IAS engagements and diligently follow-up in a timely way the status of audit action completion, providing support where necessary and reporting the outcome to inform reporting to ExCo/Audit and Risk Committee.
