Job Description

This role is ideal for a technically strong IT Auditor who enjoys leading audits end-to-end, mentoring junior staff, and ensuring IT risks are comprehensively identified and addressed across a complex group environment.

You will be responsible for planning, executing, and managing IT audit assignments across the business, with a strong focus on IT General Controls, Application Controls, IT Governance, and Information Security. In addition to hands-on audit delivery, you will perform technical reviews of junior auditors’ working papers, ensuring all audits meet best practice standards and align with IIA and ISACA requirements.

We are looking for a smart CA(SA) with a genuine interest in IT Audit and IT risk – someone who goes beyond box-ticking and truly understands the why behind controls and processes. The ideal candidate is commercially astute and naturally curious, with a sharp eye for emerging issues, the confidence to dig beneath surface-level explanations, and the judgment to challenge where necessary. You will be skilled at identifying meaningful IT risks and translating them into practical, effective mitigation strategies that add real value to the business.

Strong professional judgement, analytical thinking, and a healthy level of scepticism are essential, along with the ability to communicate confidently, engage stakeholders, ask the right questions, and influence outcomes.
 
Duties:

  • Plan and execute risk-based IT audits in line with the annual audit plan
  • Gain a strong understanding of IT operations within the business context of each entity
  • Review and assess IT General Controls (access, change management, operations, backup & recovery)
  • Evaluate application controls across ERP, finance, HR, and bespoke systems
  • Identify, assess, and document IT risks and control gaps with practical remediation recommendations
  • Perform audits in line with internal audit methodology and international standards
  • Present audit findings and recommendations to senior management
  • Provide advisory support on system implementations, migrations, and control design
  • Collaborate with IT management, business stakeholders, and external auditors
  • Supervise, mentor, and review the work of junior IT audit staff
  • Contribute to the development of IT audit programs, methodologies, and best practices
  • Stay current with emerging technologies, cybersecurity risks, and regulatory developments
