Barclay Simpson is recruiting an Audit Manager for a dynamic banking organisation in London. This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Internal Auditor looking to develop within a highly regarded team that offers broad exposure, significant stakeholder interaction and good opportunities for career development.
Working as part of an established Internal Audit function, you will take responsibility for delivering risk-based audits across a diverse range of business areas. You will be involved throughout the audit lifecycle, from planning and risk assessment through to fieldwork, stakeholder discussions and reporting.
The function has a strong focus on integrated auditing, with business and technology auditors working closely together across assignments. As a result, the role provides an excellent opportunity for a business auditor to broaden their understanding of technology risk and controls alongside their core audit experience. The organisation is also supportive of relevant professional development, including the opportunity to work towards qualifications such as CISA where appropriate.
The role offers broad exposure across the Bank and will suit someone who enjoys taking ownership of their work and building strong relationships with the business. You will be expected to understand complex processes, identify and assess key risks and controls, communicate findings effectively and develop pragmatic recommendations that add value.
Alongside individual audit assignments, you will have the opportunity to contribute to wider audit planning and departmental initiatives and support the continued development of the function as the organisation and its risk environment evolve.
To be successful, you should have good Internal Audit experience gained within financial services. Previous banking experience would be particularly relevant, although strong candidates from other areas of financial services will also be considered. You should have strong analytical, stakeholder management and communication skills, together with the confidence to take increasing responsibility for leading audit assignments.
A professional qualification such as ACA, ACCA, CIA or equivalent would be advantageous. An interest in developing broader technology audit skills would also be welcomed, although existing IT Audit expertise is not required.
The organisation has a collaborative and entrepreneurial culture and offers considerable exposure to the business and senior stakeholders. This would particularly suit an auditor who is intellectually curious, enjoys working closely with colleagues across an organisation and wants to continue broadening their experience rather than becoming narrowly specialised.
The position is based in central London and operates on a hybrid basis.
