RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Lead audit execution, including planning, scoping, and reporting of risk-based and regulatory required audits of business areas
  • Perform risk assessments of related organization units and ongoing monitoring of covered areas, with active discussions with senior management across Internal Audit and the business
  • Define audit scope, perform detailed walkthroughs to evaluate the adequacy of control designs, develop test plans, and perform testing to assess control operating effectiveness
  • Present the scope, progress, and results of the review to Internal Audit management and liaise with business stakeholders on issue identification and resolution
  • Perform in depth audits of controls supporting market risk, and engage with market risk engineering and specialists to develop deep understanding of the relevant controls
  • Maintain ongoing discussions with senior stakeholders to understand any changes to organizational structures, business processes, and products, as well as any significant internal and external events, to formulate a point of view of the control environment
  • Develop annual audit coverage plan, including risk assess organization units, identifying high risk areas and meeting regulatory expectations


SKILLS AND RELEVANT EXPERIENCE
  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or related fields
  • Effective audit mindset to be able to independently assess the firm's internal control structure for market risk
  • Strong interpersonal, and relationship management skills
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Good technical knowledge of products and relevant market risk metrics
  • Highly motivated with the ability to multi-task and remain organized in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE
  • Technical awareness and understanding of market risk management, stress testing, risk identification, limits / risk appetite, capital and regulatory reporting
