Senior Auditor

Let us tell you a bit about the opportunity: Led by the Chief Internal Auditor, GIA helps the Group achieve its objectives by executing a disciplined risk-based approach to evaluate the effectiveness of the Group’s risk management, control and governance processes. As an independent function we make impartial, professional judgements based on the evidence we see and the information we are provided with. This allows us to help the business develop constructive recommendations to support the strengthening of the risk management, controls, and processes across the Group. The scope of internal auditing encompasses, but is not limited to, the examination and evaluation of the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group’s governance, risk management, and internal control processes in relation to the Group’s defined goals and objectives.
