The roles are hybrid, 3 days in the Warrington office and 2 days from home.

The role:
The team provides critical insight to the delivery of the Corporate Internal Audit Plan and subsequently the delivery of the Plan in line with professional standards, Code of Ethics and NDA governance in order to provide assurance to the Board.

In addition, the role provides a key enabler to the Head of Internal Audit in the provision of independent assurance and advisory services, including supporting the completion of control investigations, and provision of financial governance advice.

Principal Accountabilities:

- Manage / Lead the delivery of risk-based audit reviews through the evaluation and challenge to the quality and implementation of management policies, processes and procedures in order to provide assurance as to the adequacy of internal controls and risk management and strengthen business resilience to ensure achievement of strategic objectives e.g. value for money, avoidance of risk materialising.

- Identify commercial and practical solutions to control issues, make recommendations. Present audit reports with identified significant control weaknesses requiring immediate attention to appropriate Sponsors/Directors and track actions to resolve issues/risks raised.
- Provide critical insight to the Head of Internal Audit and the Senior Internal Audit Manager (providing regular management information) on progress in addressing the control weaknesses identified during audit reviews. This includes formal reporting and escalation to the Sponsoring Directors where progress against audit actions is not made. Specifically, holding the business to account for the action progress.
- Provide critical insight to enable the Head of Internal Audit to report on progress to the Audit and Risk Assurance Committee and wider stakeholders e.g. SL Board, SL Executive Committee and the NDA on performance on the implementation of actions arising from audit reviews.
- Build constructive and effective relationships with all levels of Management within the Business and advise on significant issues identified on the processes and activities during the delivery of audits they are responsible for and reach agreement on how issues will be resolved.

Minimum Requirements:

- Advanced skills in governance, risk management and internal control practices, including proficient skills in data analytics
