The Royal Borough of Greenwich is seeking to recruit an Internal Auditor to work in a team of Internal Audit and Anti-Fraud professionals.  You will play a vital role in discharging statutory Section 151 responsibilities and Accounts and Audit Regulations requirements placed upon the Royal Borough by undertaking complex audits, major reviews and special investigations.

Applicants interested in applying for this Internal Auditor role will have a sound understanding of risk-based internal audit techniques and methodologies.  The preferred candidate will currently be working in a private or public sector Internal Audit role and will have experience of delivering risk-based audit reviews.

The successful post-holder’s main objective will be to contribute to the Royal Borough’s governance and assurance framework by delivering allocated parts of the risk-based audit plan.  You will also provide advice in relation to risks and controls to officers across the organisation.  The role reports to the Internal Audit Manager and is based with the Royal Borough’s Internal Audit, Investigations and Risk Management division.

We are looking for a self-motivated and effective team player with excellent verbal and written skills and the credibility and confidence to liaise with officers across the organisation, including senior management.

Your technical skills will be supported by knowledge and experience of risk-based audit techniques, and you will have a proven track record of excellent client focus.  You will be able to work on your own initiative and have the ability to multitask on conflicting priorities and support requests for advice at short notice.  Finally, you have the ability to quickly familiarise yourself with new systems and processes.
