We're partnering with a large, complex US listed organisation with an Internal Audit function that is genuinely ahead of the curve when it comes to technology, data analytics and automation.

This is not your traditional Internal Audit role.

Over the past five years, the business has invested heavily in building a highly sophisticated, technology-driven audit function, incorporating hundreds of automated testing scenarios, continuous monitoring dashboards and robotic process automation.

With an ambitious roadmap focused on further advancing its use of AI and emerging technologies, this is an exceptional opportunity to join a forward-thinking team where you'll be exposed to tools, techniques and ways of working that are transforming the future of Internal Audit.

You'll work alongside highly experienced audit professionals who are passionate about innovation, knowledge sharing and developing their people.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Lead end-to-end internal audits, from planning and risk assessment through to fieldwork, reporting and remediation.
  • Experience working within capital-intensive, asset-heavy or supply chain-driven industries, such as manufacturing, construction, utilities, logistics or FMCG
  • Leverage advanced analytics and automation tools to improve audit efficiency and effectiveness.
  • Develop and maintain automated testing routines, dashboards and data analytics workflows.
  • Work with tools including Alteryx, Power BI, Power Automate and other emerging technologies.
  • Explore opportunities to incorporate AI and new technologies into audit processes.
  • Partner with stakeholders across the business to identify risks, strengthen controls and drive process improvements.
  • Contribute to the continued development of an already highly advanced Internal Audit function.

We're looking for someone who brings a solid foundation in Internal Audit, combined with strong analytical capabilities and a genuine interest in technology. You'll have:

  • Experience delivering end-to-end internal audits, either in-house or within a professional services environment.
  • Strong exposure to data analytics, automation or technology-enabled auditing.
  • Experience with tools such as Alteryx, Power BI, Power Automate or similar.
  • An understanding of risk management, internal controls and audit methodologies.
  • Exposure to SAP or other complex ERP systems would be advantageous.
  • Strong stakeholder engagement skills and the confidence to challenge existing processes.
  • A curious, proactive mindset and a willingness to learn new technologies.
  • Experience with AI, GRC platforms or IT auditing would be highly regarded.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

  • A genuinely advanced audit function: Join a team at the forefront of analytics, automation and technology-enabled auditing in Australia.
  • Exposure to AI and emerging technologies: Be involved in shaping how new technologies are incorporated into the future of Internal Audit.
  • Exceptional learning opportunities: Work alongside experienced professionals in an environment that encourages continuous learning, technical development and innovation.
  • Real ownership and impact: Take responsibility for your own audits and contribute ideas that influence how the function operates.
  • Broad business exposure: Work across a large, complex organisation with access to senior stakeholders and a diverse range of operational and financial processes.
  • Long-term career development: Develop a unique combination of audit, analytics and technology skills that will position you strongly for the future.
