Senior Associate - Internal Audit

Senior Auditor - Internal Audit and SoX

A Senior Auditor role supporting the delivery of the Internal Audit and SOX programme, combining hands-on risk-based internal controls testing execution with growing exposure to broader operational and advisory audit work. This role suits an experienced auditor ready to operate with a high degree of autonomy, take ownership of complex deliverables, and act as a technical reference point for the wider team.

This is a genuine opportunity to fast-track your career in Internal Audit. You will be given ownership over early stage audit and SoX areas, shaping how the team works through our evolving Methodology and Playbook, and building direct exposure to senior stakeholders across the business all while working alongside an Internal Audit leadership team who are invested in your development.

You'll also gain international exposure, working closely with colleagues and stakeholders based in the US as part of a global Internal Audit and SoX function.

If you're ambitious, ready to take on increased responsibility, and want a role that grows with you, we'd love to hear from you.

This role will report to the Senior Manager, Internal Audit, based in Belfast.

Beyond the role itself, you'll get:

• Genuine exposure to advisory work alongside core SOX delivery not just testing, but real influence over how the business operates.
• The chance to shape team methodology rather than simply executing a fixed scope
• Regular collaboration with a US-based team, broadening your exposure to how a global function operates
• Flexibility in how and when you work, recognizing that great audit work doesn't always happen 9-to-5.

What You Will Do:

• Lead the execution of operational, financial and IT audits across the business taking ownership of the full audit lifecycle from planning and scoping through to fieldwork, reporting, and follow-up, and applying strong professional judgement to assess risk, identify control weaknesses, and shape practical recommendations for improvement.
• Apply strong professional judgement to identify control gaps, testing exceptions, and root cause, translating findings into clear, actionable recommendations for management.
• Track agreed management action plans rigorously through to resolution, holding stakeholders to account on agreed timeframes.
• Lead the execution of SOX testing cycles across assigned business processes, key reports, and IT controls, from risk assessment and walkthroughs through to control testing and high-quality documentation with minimal oversight.
• Manage information requests and PBC schedules efficiently, keeping audits and/or SoX testing on track and disruption to the business low.
• Assess control deficiencies and track remediation progress, working with process owners to ensure corrective action plans close the gaps identified.
• Advise management on the risk and control impact of new systems or process changes across the business.
• Build and maintain trusted relationships with control owners, and senior stakeholders across the business.
• Maintain an active awareness of emerging risks across the business, flagging potential audits for the annual plan.
• Identify opportunities to automate and streamline control testing using data analytics (where possible).
• Communicate testing progress, findings, and emerging issues proactively and with appropriate judgement on when to escalate.

What You Will Need:

• 3-5 years of experience in Internal Audit; SoX compliance or a related risk and controls function with a track record of increasing autonomy and responsibility (public accounting / public company / SaaS experience beneficial).
• Professional qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIA, or equivalent) obtained, or very close to completion, strongly preferred.
• Strong working knowledge of Business process and IT SOX requirements, internal control frameworks, and risk-based audit testing methodologies.
• Strong project management skills and the ability to produce timely and high-quality deliverables and manage multiple and shifting priorities in a dynamic environment.
• Strong understanding of financial, business and IT processes and the risks surrounding those processes.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently, exercising sound judgement with minimal supervision
• Demonstrated flexibility and adaptability, being comfortable moving between different types of work, deadlines, and priorities at short notice, managing multiple audits and competing priorities without compromising quality or deadlines.
• Willingness to flex working hours on an ad hoc and reasonable basis to support alignment with US-based colleagues and stakeholders where required
• Confident, credible communicator, comfortable engaging with and influencing stakeholders at senior levels.
• A proactive, curious mindset with a genuine interest in understanding the "why" behind controls and processes, not just the "what".

• Excellent communication, interpersonal, relationship building and presentation skills that facilitate productive interactions with business partners.
• Proven ability to prioritize and multi-task.
• Exceptional productivity skills. Can be relied on to get the job done accurately and on time.
• Ability to work with all levels of business partners and cross-functional groups.
• Proven ability to collaborate with team members and generate solutions.
• Ability to handle and protect sensitive information in a confidential and professional manner.
• Must possess a flexible and open mind that can adapt to a dynamic and entrepreneurial environment that often requires developing new processes, procedures and policies.
