Vodafone Three is looking for an Internal Auditor to lead and deliver meaningful internal audits that support resilience, compliance, and future readiness.

What You’ll Do

In this role, you’ll lead and deliver meaningful internal audits that help the organisation stay resilient, compliant, and future‑ready.

You’ll bring people together, guide junior team members, and provide stakeholders with confidence through clear, evidence‑based insights.

• Lead end‑to‑end risk‑based audits — from planning through to reporting — with a strong focus on finance and, when needed, operational areas.
• Supervise and coach junior auditors to make sure every engagement runs smoothly and to a high standard.
• Build strong relationships with senior leaders, ensuring they understand and value audit processes, outcomes, and recommendations.
• Use independent judgment to identify, analyse, and document audit issues and practical recommendations.
• Own and present the audit workflow, including key milestones, to senior stakeholders with clarity and confidence.
• Deliver insightful, well‑crafted audit reports that influence decisions and help improve business performance.
• Represent Internal Audit in governance forums and act as a trusted voice for risk and controls.
• Support the Head of Audit in promoting Internal Audit across the organisation and exploring innovative ways to enhance workflows and communication.
• Ensure data analytics is embedded thoughtfully and consistently into audit approaches to add real value.
• Drive continuous improvement by recommending and adopting modern, industry‑leading audit techniques.

Who You Are

You’ll thrive in this role if you bring a blend of technical expertise, professional curiosity, and strong interpersonal skills.

You're effective both collaboratively and independently and enjoy influencing positive change.

• Excellent English communication, report writing, presentation, negotiation, and conflict management skills.
• Experience in Telco, Tech, or another regulated industry (preferred but not essential).
• Strong analytical, creative, and independent-thinking abilities.
• Confident interpersonal and stakeholder engagement skills.
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• Comfortable using digital tools, including audit software and Microsoft Office 365 (Excel, Word, Power Point, Teams).
• Knowledge of Finance and Billing processes to support robust, value‑adding audits.
• Willingness to travel when required.
• Adaptability to hybrid working (splitting time between home and office).
• Relevant accounting or audit qualifications (ACA, CIMA, IIA, etc.) are an advantage.
