Senior Internal Audit Manager, Risk Advisory

We’re BDO, an accountancy and business advisory firm, providing the advice and solutions businesses need to navigate today’s changing world. Our clients are Britain’s economic engine – ambitious, entrepreneurially-spirited and high‑growth businesses that fuel the economy.

Our Advisory team provides a wide variety of services that deliver value-led advice and outcomes. They have an in-depth knowledge of business, industry sectors and markets and understand the constantly changing risks and opportunities at the heart of affairs. The team works across strategy, operations and improvement as well as at a transactional and defined project level.

As an Internal Audit Manager in our Risk Advisory Services (RAS) team, you will be responsible for leading the delivery of internal audit and risk advisory engagements across a diverse portfolio of clients. You will manage day‑to‑day engagement delivery, build trusted relationships with senior client stakeholders, and support the development and performance of junior team members.

You will work closely with Directors and Partners to ensure high‑quality, risk‑focused audits are delivered in line with professional and internal standards, while also contributing to business development activity and the continued growth of the Internal Audit practice.

You’ll be someone with:

• Proven experience delivering internal audit or equivalent risk and assurance engagements at Manager level for medium to large organisations.
• Strong understanding of risk management, internal control and corporate governance, applied pragmatically in a commercial environment.
• Experience working with complex clients, ideally including listed, regulated or not‑for‑profit organisations.
• A relevant accounting or internal audit qualification (e.g. ICAEW, CIMA, CPFA, CIIA, ACCA or equivalent).
• Experience leading engagements and managing teams, supporting performance, progression and quality delivery.
• Confident communication skills, with the ability to engage senior stakeholders and present audit findings clearly and credibly.
• Well organised and commercially aware, comfortable managing multiple priorities, client expectations and budgets simultaneously.
