    • Preparing clear and concise reports, with commercially relevant recommendations to improve the internal control system and address weaknesses and process inefficiencies.
    • Following up on the effective implementation of agreed actions, liaising closely with actions owners and business management.
    • Building and sustaining positive working relationships with colleagues in Internal Audit and stakeholders in technology and the wider business.
    • Supporting and coaching members of the team.

    • Five or more years practical experience of cybersecurity and IT auditing across IT processes, applications, infrastructure, IT security, cloud services and emerging technologies, able to understand processes and controls and identify potential risks to the business.

    Desirable skills:

    • Good knowledge of IT risk management, security and control and a clear understanding of the relationship between technology and business risk.
    • Working knowledge of cybersecurity controls, network architecture, website platform development, secure coding, and virtual computing.
    • Able to grasp complex technology issues and develop practical solutions.
    • Good organizational and project management skills, able to handle multiple assignments simultaneously, resolve problems, and deliver to deadlines.
