  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • An internal auditor is responsible for evaluating and assessing an organization's financial records, operational processes, and internal controls to ensure compliance, identify risks, and improve efficiency. We provide independent and objective assessments to help management make informed decisions and mitigate potential risks. Day-to-day this involves working with an audit team to complete the different stages of audit (planning, fieldwork, reporting) on different business areas.
