£48k - £48k Annual
Full-Time
Sheer Jobs is currently recruiting for an experienced Audit Executive to join a large public sector organisation. This is an excellent opportunity for a qualified internal audit professional with a strong local government background to play a key role in delivering independent assurance, strengthening governance frameworks, and supporting continuous service improvement.
As an Audit Executive, you will be responsible for managing and delivering a wide range of internal audit assignments from initial planning and scoping through to final reporting and follow-up reviews. Working across multiple service areas, you will provide independent assurance on governance, risk management and internal control arrangements while identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, effectiveness and value for money.
The successful candidate will be expected to work autonomously, applying a risk-based audit approach in line with professional standards and best practice. You will build strong relationships with stakeholders across the organisation, provide practical recommendations to management, and contribute to the ongoing development of audit methodologies and working practices. The role will also involve supporting investigations, participating in organisational projects and mentoring less experienced members of the audit team where required.
To be considered, you must hold a relevant professional qualification such as CIPFA, a CCAB-recognised qualification, AAT, IIA or equivalent, together with degree-level education or comparable experience. You will have a minimum of five years' experience working within a public sector internal audit environment and a proven track record of delivering audits from planning through to final report.
A strong understanding of risk-based internal auditing, auditing standards and governance principles is essential. You will also possess sound knowledge of local government finance, including Section 151 responsibilities, statutory requirements and relevant codes of practice. Experience auditing procurement, contract management and commercial arrangements within a local authority setting will be highly advantageous.
This opportunity would suit a motivated and professional auditor who enjoys working in a dynamic environment and is committed to delivering high-quality assurance services that add value to the organisation.
