The core purpose of the role is to identify risks, vulnerabilities, control weaknesses, and inefficiencies, and then provide actionable recommendations for improvement.

Key Responsibilities:

• Audit Execution: Plan and Execute Audits Design risk-based audit programs for IT systems, applications, infrastructure, and technical processes (like software development or disaster recovery).
• Technical Testing: Control Evaluation & Testing.Assess the design and operating effectiveness of technical internal controls, such as access management, data encryption, system change management, and configuration settings.
