How you'll succeed
  • Audit Planning and Execution - While you will contribute to developing the division's risk- based annual audit plan, your main focus will be planning and managing the execution of audits of large or complex businesses by identifying and fully understanding the key business processes and their inherent risk, the control environment, both at the management or operational levels, and the potential residual risks.
  • Audit Reporting - Where relevant, you will identify significant business control weaknesses, and objectively assess the severity and materiality of the issues and their potential impact in a clear, concise and professional manner. You will also drive the reporting component of the audit.

Who you are
  • You can demonstrate experience in having a comprehensive knowledge of auditing practices and accounting principles and processes, and strong knowledge with a focus on Wealth Management (Asset Management, Brokerage and Private Wealth Management) and the related regulatory environment in Canada.
  • You're a certified professional. Typically this knowledge is acquired through obtaining an auditing or accounting designations (e.g., CA, CMA, CFA, CPA, ACCA), a business degree (e.g., M.B.A.), in addition to business experience either in the banking and financial services world or internal / external audit assurance and consulting services.
  • You understand that success is in the details. You notice things that others don't. Your critical thinking skills help to inform your decision making.
  • You give meaning to data. You enjoy investigating complex problems, and making sense of information. You're confident in your ability to communicate detailed information in an impactful way.
  • You're passionate about people. You find meaning in relationships, and surround yourself with a diverse network of partners. You build trust through respect and authenticity.
