The role involves:

Comprehensive risk assessment and engagement planning. This entails obtaining an in-depth understanding of each business and/or function being audited, identification and assessment of risks (including understanding the manner in which such risks are controlled and the audit approach required to ensure controls are appropriately designed and operating effectively) and preparing documentation (workpapers, planning memorandum and audit program) that reflects the aforementioned information and assessments.
Proactive engagement in the creation of a dynamic risk assessment tool which uses data to provide a current (and predicted) view of control effectiveness across the organization.
Executing audit work across various businesses and functions front to back. This encompasses execution of the planned approach for audits (regional, global, thematic, and functional) in a team-based environment, interacting closely with various levels of staff, including IT auditors, and management throughout the Bank.
Developing, presenting and finalizing audit reports. This process entails initial drafting of the report, discussion with management to ensure factual accuracy and clearance and coordination with Management to obtain written responses to Audit’s recommendations.
Leveraging the Internal Audit team’s hybrid practice model structure which fosters skillset specialization without silos.
Enhancing your audit skillset using Credit Suisse’s Audit Academy training which allows for knowledge to be accumulated and deployed efficiently across the audit universe.
Mentoring new hires to aid in their acclimation to the Bank and the manner in which the Department operates.
Participating in the recruitment of other Financial Auditors.
