We are seeking an Internal Audit Manager (Technology) to lead risk-based internal audit engagements focused on technology and cybersecurity. This role is ideal for an experienced technology auditor who is inherently curious, comfortable operating independently, and motivated to dig deeply into complex environments to understand how risk truly manifests.
In this role, you will own audits from planning through reporting, applying sound judgment to assess risk, challenge assumptions, and deliver clear, actionable insights. You will work closely with technology, security, and engineering stakeholders, and play a key role in advancing a modern, technology-enabled Internal Audit function that serves as a trusted risk partner to the business.
Primary Responsibilities:
Own the end-to-end execution of assigned technology and cybersecurity audit engagements, from detailed planning through fieldwork, reporting, and issue follow-up
Lead risk-based audit scoping and develop audit workplans and testing strategies aligned to key risks, system architecture, and business context
Assess the design and operating effectiveness of controls across complex technology domains, including:
Cloud infrastructure and platforms
Cybersecurity programs and controls
Identity and access management
Network and application security
Logging, monitoring, and incident response
Secure software development lifecycle (SDLC)
Apply professional skepticism and technical judgment to move beyond standard audit procedures, identifying root causes, control gaps, and emerging or non-obvious risks
Conduct deep-dive interviews and walkthroughs with engineering, security, and platform teams to understand how systems operate in practice and where risk trade-offs exist
Clearly articulate audit observations, including risk implications and practical, prioritized recommendations that support both security and business objectives
Prepare high-quality audit reports that synthesize detailed findings into clear, relevant insights for technical and non-technical audiences
Partner with Technology and Cybersecurity leadership during audit execution to validate understanding, discuss risk exposure, and support effective remediation planning
Provide guidance, coaching, and review support to junior auditors, ensuring work quality, accuracy, and adherence to Internal Audit standards
Stay current on emerging technology trends, cybersecurity threats, and evolving risk landscapes to continuously enhance audit coverage
Contribute to the evolution and continuous improvement of Internal Audit methodologies, tools, and ways of working
