The Director leads the Directorate of Internal Audit and Assurance that encompasses Internal Audit, the Digital Assurance Office, Portfolio, Programme and Project Assurance, the Data Protection Officer and the Counter Fraud Service. If you have the leadership ability to shape this key role and increase the profile and impact of Internal Audit and Assurance across Scottish Government and the wider public sector, we very much hope you will apply.
Individuals on any working pattern can apply for any post. We welcome flexible working. If you are interested in applying on a job-share basis, please make clear in your application if you wish to be considered as a pre-existing job-share partnership or if you are interested in moving into a job-share arrangement. We will assess proposed working patterns against the business requirements for the post and discuss all options with candidates.
This is a permanent, pensionable Senior Civil Service Director (SCS2) role located in Edinburgh. As with most areas across the organisation, hybrid working is the current arrangement but some in-office attendance will be required to meet business needs for this role. Relocation expenses may be available.
For further details on this role and how to apply please visit Alternatively, please contact the Senior Resourcing & Staffing Team (SCSHR@gov.scot).
