Job Description
The Senior Manager will help shape and execute Internal Audit's technology and transformation strategy.

The mandate brings together technology risk assurance, project advisory, audit-plan delivery, stakeholder leadership and modernization of the Internal Audit operating model.

The ideal candidate must demonstrate expertise across three primary verticals, ranked by priority: Project Advisory (Highest Priority): Ability to integrate into active system implementations, ask critical questions in real-time, and challenge infrastructure or cybersecurity work.
IT Audits: Experience with unstructured audits (e.g., cybersecurity) rather than just checklist-based approaches (SOC 1/SOC 2).

Automation: Experience with RPA or AI use cases within continuous monitoring programs to reduce manual data cleansing.

Support development of a technology-risk audit opinion and promptly escalate significant issues.

Oversee quality, timeliness and relevance of technology assurance and advisory engagements, including risk-based audit programs and co-sourced work.

Develop the team,



plan resourcing and build robust relationships with technology leaders, executive stakeholders and assurance partners.
