Senior Auditor – Internal Audit & Risk Assurance
Location: Multiple UK Locations
Contract: Full-Time
Salary: Competitive + Benefits

What if your next audit role gave you more than just a portfolio of clients?
If it gave you access to complex challenges in financial services and beyond —while still offering the freedom to grow, to learn, and to have your voice heard, would you be interested?

We’re working with a global consultancy that doesn’t just deliver audits—it shapes how clients think about risk, resilience, and opportunity. They’re looking for Senior Auditors who want to move beyond checklists and frameworks, and into work that actually influences decisions at the board level.

This isn’t just about following methodology. It’s about understanding where the real risks live, how to challenge stakeholders with credibility, and how to guide clients toward solutions that stick.

What you’ll be doing
Leading and delivering audits and assurance reviews across regulated industries—financial services, fintech, and insurance, among them
Helping scope and shape engagements so they’re focused on what matters most
Building trust with senior stakeholders while surfacing insights that drive action
Coaching juniors and creating an environment where learning is shared, not siloed
Flexing between on-site, hybrid, or remote work—depending on your clients and your preferences

Who you are
Professionally qualified (ACA, ACCA, CIA, IIA or equivalent), with at least 1–3 years of experience
Confident in internal audit or risk assurance, ideally gained in consultancy /professional services (perhaps you’ve then moved to the financial services industry in a risk / compliance / audit role, this would be a big plus)
Experienced, or at least highly interested, in financial services—banking, insurance, asset management
A strong communicator who can win trust quickly and explain technical issues simply
Willing to travel occasionally within the UK when it adds value

What’s on offer
Work with a respected consultancy known for integrity, innovation, and inclusive leadership
Structured career development and mentoring, plus technical training to keep you ahead of the curve
Flexible working that respects your life outside of work
The chance to influence—not just report. To be listened to—not overlooked.

Here’s the real question: do you want your next audit role to be another rung on the ladder, or the move that lets you reshape how you’re seen as a professional?

Partner-level roles are open to those who want to deliver, with proven examples of individuals being fast-tracked to Manager, Senior Manager, and junior Partner.
If it’s the latter, this is worth a conversation.
