Summary

The Freeman Internal Audit function is led by the VP of Internal Audit, reporting functionally to the Chairman of the Audit Committee and administratively to the CFO. Internal Audit provides independent and objective assurance and consulting services to improve operations across corporate, branch, and international locations. Audits focus on financial, operational, compliance, IT, and strategic risks.

The Senior Staff Auditor leads and executes operational, financial, and compliance audits, including audit planning, risk assessment, fieldwork, data analysis, control testing, and audit reporting. Responsibilities include drafting audit observations, communicating results to management and executives, and partnering with stakeholders throughout the audit lifecycle. The role requires the ability to work independently, take full ownership of assigned audits, prioritize competing deadlines, and collaborate on larger, integrated engagements.

This role supports the continued development of the Internal Audit function by delivering independent assurance over internal controls, business processes, risk management, and governance. The Senior Staff Auditor leads integrated audits across IT, financial, and operational processes and provides consultative support on strategic initiatives, control design, and process improvements.
