This short term opportunity is suited to a detail-oriented individual who can independently lead financial control testing and deliver well-supported audit results across shared services and banking-related processes. The role offers the chance to work across critical operational and financial areas while partnering with stakeholders to strengthen internal controls, risk oversight, and regulatory compliance.
Responsibilities:
  • Lead audit engagements from initial risk assessment through final reporting, ensuring each review is executed with a clear focus on material risks and control effectiveness.
  • Perform independent testing of financial and operational controls across areas such as financial close, investments, tax, fixed assets, accounts payable, cash activities, and loan processing.
  • Develop and refine audit programs, questionnaires, and supporting documentation to align procedures with the scope and complexity of each engagement.
  • Direct day-to-day fieldwork activities, organize assignments, and monitor progress to keep audits on schedule and within agreed timelines.
  • Examine workpapers for completeness, accuracy, and adherence to internal audit standards, confirming that conclusions are supported by sufficient evidence.
  • Prepare clear audit reports that summarize observations, assess control design and performance, and present practical recommendations for improvement.
  • Meet with business leaders at the beginning and conclusion of audits to confirm scope, discuss findings, and review corrective actions.
  • Research emerging audit practices, accounting developments, and regulatory matters to support high-quality audit execution and ongoing risk awareness.
  • Contribute to special projects and additional audit-related assignments as requested by audit leadership.
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field.
  • At least 5 years of internal audit experience, including responsibility for planning and executing audits with limited supervision.
  • Demonstrated background in financial control testing across multiple process areas, including close, payables, cash, fixed assets, tax, investments, or lending operations.
  • Strong knowledge of risk-based auditing principles, internal controls, audit documentation, and report writing.
  • Experience working in banking or financial services is preferred.
  • Familiarity with SOX, operational auditing, financial auditing, and compliance-focused reviews.
