Why We Need This Job
As a pivotal member of our Group Internal Audit team, the Technology Audit Manager plays a critical role in safeguarding our technology operations and ensuring success of our technology enabled change programmes. In a rapidly evolving digital landscape, ensuring robust internal controls, effective risk management, and solid corporate governance is more essential than ever. This role will partner with senior technology management to enhance our assurance capabilities, ensuring our technology infrastructure, cybersecurity services, and tech-driven change programs meet the highest standards.
What You'll Do
As our Technology Audit Manager, your key responsibilities will include:
- Developing and Executing Audit Plans: You will create and implement risk-based technology audit plans, ensuring comprehensive coverage of our technology landscape.
- Leading Audit Engagements: Oversee co-sourced subject matter experts and/or co-source partners during specialist reviews and take ownership of audits from planning through reporting and follow-up.
- Stakeholder Engagement: Build and maintain strong relationships with senior technology and business stakeholders, ensuring audit findings are addressed and emerging risks are identified.
- Delivering Value-Added Reviews: Conduct high-quality audits within tight timeframes, providing pragmatic and actionable insights, with flexible reporting.

- Audit Expertise: Proven experience (ideally 5-8 years) in conducting both solo and team audits across a number of technology and security topics, including integrated reviews.
- Technical Proficiency: Broad understanding of technology areas such as Security, Infrastructure, Third Parties, Engineering, DevOps, AI, Data Analytics, and Programme Governance. Many of our audits are greenfield, so ability to plan, adapt, and uncover the right risk areas to test is also key.
- Stakeholder Management: Ability to translate complex technology risks into business terms and propose pragmatic solutions.
- Leadership & Teamwork: Demonstrates a “one team” culture, capable of leading and coaching audit teams while contributing to continuous improvement.
