We are searching for an experienced Associate Director - Technology Risk Assurance

Overview

Are you passionate about emerging technology, cyber, change, and risk management in the financial services sector? We are.

Our world is ever more complex, interconnected, and reliant on technology and data to do business. While the digital opportunities for organisations are endless, the risks are becoming increasingly more complex to manage.

RSM’s global Technology Risk Assurance (TRA) practice provides assurance, advice, and solutions to enable our clients to manage their digital risk and move forward with confidence.

Our local client portfolio in the North of England includes some of the most interesting and prestigious organisations that operate within the financial services (e.g. Fintech, insurance, building societies), corporates (e.g. technology, manufacturing and automotive) and the public sector (e.g. healthcare, social housing, education and local / central government).

Our team thrives as their responsibilities are diverse, challenging, and purposeful. We regularly work alongside other RSM teams (UK and International) including, Tax, Internal Audit, Corporate Finance, Consulting, and External Audit to help our clients address their most complex business challenges.
