As the Company’s technology landscape continues to evolve, Internal Audit is strengthening its assurance capabilities across IT, cybersecurity and digital risk. We are seeking an experienced IT Auditor to provide hands-on audit coverage over technology systems and controls, with sound professional judgment and the ability to work constructively with both technology and business teams.

As a Senior IT Auditor, you will:

• Plan and deliver risk-based audits of IT systems, infrastructure, enterprise applications and digital platforms, in line with the approved audit plan.
• Assess the design and operating effectiveness of IT general controls, including access management, change management, IT operations, backup and recovery, and system monitoring.
• Review application and security controls across ERP, cloud and other business-critical environments, including configurations, interfaces and segregation of duties.
• Assess cybersecurity and IT-resilience controls using security reports, system logs, vulnerability assessments and penetration-testing results.
• Identify and assess control weaknesses and their underlying causes, communicate well-supported findings, and work with relevant stakeholders to ensure recommendations are practical and proportionate.
• Monitor agreed corrective actions and validate whether remediation adequately addresses the identified risk.
• Provide independent advisory input on SDLC, system implementations, digital transformation, AI and automation, without assuming management responsibility.
• Use data analytics where appropriate and contribute technology expertise to broader Internal Audit and external-assurance work.

Requirements

The ideal candidate should have:

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Engineering or a related discipline.
• Three to five years of relevant experience, including at least two years of hands-on IT audit, technology-controls assurance or comparable work.
• Demonstrated ability to perform audit procedures, evaluate evidence and develop supported conclusions and recommendations.
• Strong practical knowledge of IT general controls.
• Practical experience in, or demonstrable applied knowledge of, at least one additional area, such as application controls, cybersecurity, cloud environments, SDLC and change management, IT resilience, or third-party technology risk.
• Working knowledge of relevant frameworks and requirements, such as ISO 27001, NIST, NIS2 or COBIT.
• Strong analytical and communication skills, including the ability to translate technical findings into clear business implications and challenge constructively.
• A relevant professional certification, or active progress toward one, such as CISA, CISM, CRISC, CISSP or ISO 27001 Lead Auditor, will be considered a strong advantage.
• Experience with ERP systems, data analytics, AI-enabled audit techniques or maritime technology environments will also be considered an advantage.
