What you'll do

  • IT audit and advisory engagements are delivered end-to-end with: executive-quality standards, clear ownership, and defensible scope.

  • A high-performing audit team is developed through structured coaching, clear: expectations, and tailored development plans, with a culture of excellence, continuous learning, and proactive problem-solving taking hold.

  • AI risk and governance considerations: including GenAI and agentic AI model risk, bias, transparency, and data privacy — are integrated into the audit approach.

  • Controls are streamlined, manual effort is reduced, and operational: efficiency across the audit function improves.
  • Productive relationships are built and maintained with business leaders and: cross-functional partners — including Finance, Legal, ERM, Compliance, IT, Engineering, and Security — to implement scalable controls.
