To begin with, you will need to be in the office daily, but once you have been fully trained, the role will become hybrid, meaning you will only need to be in the office a couple of days a week.
Specifically, we are looking for you to hold an MSc in Internal Audit Management & Consultancy. We are open to candidates who have recently graduated or individuals who have moved into a role but have perhaps not been offered the development they expected in an Internal Auditor role. If you are a recent graduate, any placements during your education would be advantageous.
The company will develop your career, primarily focusing on Internal Auditing for local government, charity, and public services organisations. Previous individuals who have joined the business have gone on to develop into more senior roles.
In addition, you will be rewarded with an excellent starting salary, the ability to work from home (once trained), and a benefits package. You will be given a career track that will include obtaining industry qualifications that will help advance your career in the future.
I anticipate significant interest in this role, so I suggest you make an application now or miss out.
For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices recruitment and Scientific recruitment specialists at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240, or make an application, and one of our team members at Newton Colmore will contact you.
