Senior Internal Auditor – Development Finance

My client is a unique institution that provides development capital to fund infrastructure projects around the world, with the aim of making the world a better place especially in areas of poverty. Projects include renewable energy to support net zero, investments in digital communication, agriculture, water supply and sanitation.

I have been given the exclusive mandate to hire a Senior Auditor to work closely with and report to the Head of Audit. This person can come from any sector, e.g. Finance, Public Sector, Commerce, but they need to have a solid Internal Audit background, good academics, and be able to run audits themselves. Written and verbal communication must be very good, and this person must be able to act on their own initiative. They must also demonstrate values that align with the organisation.

Audits on the current plan include credit review, development finance and procurement. Some will be very relevant to banking or even private equity while others may be central functions orientated or related to specific major projects.

There is hybrid working, 50% of time is expected in the office. There is some travel, typically less than 15% but it could include a week or two weeks stay in reasonably exotic places in Africa or Asia. This probably isn’t a role for someone who is primarily money motivated but really is a role for someone who wants to be part of something that really makes a difference to people’s lives and a renewed sense of fulfilment.
