About Our Client

Our client is a large, complex UK business that has been through significant transformation following recent ownership changes. With a national footprint and a Nottinghamshire based office, the organisation is currently rolling out new systems and re‑shaping its control environment. Internal Audit sits close to senior stakeholders and is actively involved in advising on risk appetite, project design and governance as the business evolves.

The Internal Audit function operates as a true third line, working alongside second line oversight and compliance teams, and is respected for the quality and depth of its work rather than volume of audits delivered.

Job Description

  • Delivering end‑to‑end, risk-based internal audits across head office functions
  • Auditing a broad range of areas including financial services, VAT compliance, payroll, health and safety, KYC compliance and system post‑implementation reviews
  • Contributing to a risk‑based audit plan of approximately 7 to 8 audits per year, alongside quarterly continuous audits focused on previously identified risks
  • Engaging with stakeholders to provide practical recommendations and challenge existing processes
  • Supporting advisory work on projects, system implementations and changes to the control environment
  • Working closely with the Head of Third Line Assurance, second line teams and data analysts to enhance audit insight and coverage

The Successful Applicant

  • Experience in Internal Audit covering operational and corporate risks
  • Comfortable delivering full‑scope, operational audits rather than limited testing or compliance‑only reviews
  • Able to understand the wider context of the business and apply judgement
  • Confident communicator who can build credibility with stakeholders and contribute constructively to discussions on risk and control design
  • Motivated by variety, change and the opportunity to develop broad internal audit capability rather than specialising narrowly
  • Desirable: Holds a relevant qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIA, CIMA etc)

What's on Offer

  • Base salary up to £60,000 per annum#
  • Annual performance related bonus up to 10%
  • £5,000 Car Allowance
  • Hybrid working with typically one day per week onsite (must be able to work flexibly should this need to increase)
  • Exposure to a wide audit universe across finance, operations, compliance and transformation projects
  • Involvement in system implementations and business change from a risk advisory perspective
  • Opportunity to develop into a well‑rounded Internal Auditor with visibility across senior stakeholders
