Internal Auditor
Job Description
The opportunity
Apply internal-audit experience to examples that test whether AI can connect business risks, control objectives and evidence. Work emphasizes independent judgment and a clear audit trail, using the IIA standards or SOX-equivalent framework identified for the assignment.
What you will work on
• Create risk-assessment and audit-planning cases, explaining why a process, control or exposure merits review and how the proposed procedures address the stated risk.
• Distinguish control design from operating effectiveness; review testing steps, sampling assumptions and evidence needed to support a conclusion.
• Evaluate AI interpretations of walkthroughs, exceptions and supporting documents, identifying unsupported assurance, contradictory evidence or gaps in the test performed.
• Draft or review findings that separate criteria, condition, cause and consequence, and assess whether a proposed remediation addresses the identified weakness.
Relevant qualifications
• Practical knowledge of risk-based internal audits, SOX or comparable control-testing work, with familiarity with IIA standards and governance responsibilities relevant to your assignments.
• Ability to organize workpapers, distinguish evidence from assertion and write clear control findings. Explain your experience with the processes and regulatory context you can review confidently.
Deliverables
Audit scenarios, risk-and-control mappings, test procedures, evidence assessments and annotated findings. Show how each conclusion follows from the work performed and identify limitations that would change the degree of assurance a reviewer could reasonably provide.
