You stand out with your interpersonal skills; you listen actively to your partners, and you offer innovative and pragmatic solutions?
You have a good business sense, and you quickly understand the political and strategic issues?
You know how to navigate ambiguous situations, synthesize your ideas, and communicate effectively?

Working in the Internal Audit team is a unique chance to acquire a transversal understanding of the Bank and to work in an environment that allows you to surpass yourself while creating strong relationships with partners from several sectors.

It means working in complicity, agility, and transparency, having the power to act and being accountable for the results. It means being part of a dynamic and innovative team where management practices promote a good work-life balance.

The team is responsible for audit and advisory engagements related to corporate governance and non-financial risk governance and management, namely on the following cross-functional topics:

ESG governance, risk management and opportunities
Data strategy, governance, and risk management
Governance and management of business continuity, operational risks, model risks and climate risk
Governance of global and variable compensation
Human risk governance, talent management, culture and inclusion & diversity

As a lead auditor, you will be responsible for leading some of these engagements with a team of auditors and for contributing to larger mandates

Establish the audit strategy to assess the maturity and effectiveness of governance and nonfinancial risk management mechanisms and, where applicable, compliance with regulatory requirements, while taking into account risk appetite
Maintain a relationship of trust with partners from other sectors
Analyze the problems encountered, identify the root causes in cooperation with relevant partners and support them in the identification of innovative and realistic solutions to eliminate the causes of the problem
Present your conclusions and recommendations to the relevant executives and managers and write the audit or advice report or contribute to its drafting for larger mandates

We want to contribute to your quality of life by offering you as much flexibility as possible in your work.
