  • Support ISA 315-aligned IT understanding and risk assessment, including systems, data flows, key reports and risks arising from IT
  • Prepare clear, review-ready workpapers, testing templates, issue summaries and RACMs.
  • Identify control deficiencies, exceptions and root causes, and escalate issues clearly to engagement leads.
  • Liaise professionally with client stakeholders and audit teams to obtain evidence, resolve queries and maintain delivery timelines.
  • Support financial statement audit-related technology controls assurance, SOC 1, SOC 2 and regulatory assurance engagements as required.
  • Assist with planning, sample selection, evidence tracking and execution across assigned workstreams.
  • Coach Analysts on selected tasks and contribute to TRCA methodology, templates and knowledge sharing.
  • Manage assigned workstreams across multiple engagements and escalate risks, delays or uncertainties promptly.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

Essential:
  • Experience in IT audit, technology risk, controls assurance or external audit support
  • Good understanding of IT General Controls, IT Application Controls, interfaces, automated controls and IPE
  • Ability to document processes, testing and conclusions clearly in an audit-ready and professional manner
  • Strong analytical mindset, professional scepticism and attention to detail
  • Confident communication skills with the ability to liaise effectively with clients, managers and audit teams
  • Ability to manage competing deadlines, take ownership of deliverables and support junior colleagues
  • Working knowledge of assurance and control frameworks such as ISA 315, SOC reporting or related risk standards
  • A commitment to ethical standards, collaboration and high-quality client service
Desirable:
  • Progress toward or completion of a professional qualification such as ISACA CISA
  • Exposure to ERP, cloud or SaaS environments and the technology risks relevant to financial reporting
  • Experience supporting walkthroughs, control design assessments or issue remediation discussions
