Recruiter:

Network Recruitment

Job Ref:

NFR006898/KM

Date posted:

Wednesday, July 9, 2025

Location:

Johannesburg, South Africa

SUMMARY:
Have you ever spotted a control gap before your second cup of coffee? Do you speak fluent IT risk and dream in audit trails? Got your CISA, CISM, or CISSP badge of honour? Then let’s talk.

POSITION INFO:
Our client in the financial services space is on the hunt for a Senior IT Internal Auditor, but not just any checkbox-ticking, spreadsheet-juggling kind. They want a sharp, curious, and slightly audit-obsessed professional who knows how to blend governance with gumption.

What You’ll Be Doing (aka Your Audit Playground):

Dig deep into IT systems, infrastructure, and controls to find risks others miss
Test the strength of cyber, data, and application controls like a digital ninja
Deliver audit insights that are as useful as they are accurate (no fluff)
Work with cross-functional teams who (mostly) understand what you do
Help improve processes, not just report on what’s broken

What We’re Looking For:

You’ve earned your CISA, CISM, or CISSP and bonus points if you’ve got more than one
You have solid experience in IT internal audit (and the stories to prove it)
You understand IT governance, risk, controls, security frameworks (and how to explain them to non-techies)
You ask “what if?” a lot but always back it up with evidence
You’re just as comfortable behind a laptop as you are in a boardroom

Why You’ll Love This Role:

No two days are the same (and that’s not just recruiter talk)
You’ll be part of a team that actually listens to audit recommendations
You’ll dig into cool tech and real risks in a fast-paced financial environment
You'll get the chance to lead, learn, and leave a legacy

Ready to make an impact where IT meets assurance?
