Audit Manager - Asset & Wealth Management

Audit Manager - Asset & Wealth Management

London | £70,000-£80,000 + Bonus & Benefits | Hybrid - 4 days in office

We are partnering with a leading global financial services organisation to recruit an Audit Manager into its London Internal Audit team, with a focus on Asset & Wealth Management.

This is an excellent opportunity for an Internal Auditor who has built strong end-to-end audit experience and is now looking to take on greater responsibility within a high-quality global audit function.

You do not need previous Asset or Wealth Management experience. Of greater importance is a strong grounding in Internal Audit methodology, risk and controls, together with the ability to work independently and use data analytics to enhance audit testing.

The role

Working within a small, experienced team, you will take responsibility across the audit lifecycle, including:

Understanding business activities, processes, risks and control environments

Developing risk-based audit and testing approaches

Performing audit fieldwork and control testing

Using data analytics and full-population testing to provide deeper assurance and identify trends or exceptions

Assessing the significance and impact of issues identified

Producing clear audit documentation and communicating findings

Engaging directly with stakeholders across the business

Monitoring agreed actions and improvements

Contributing ideas to improve audit coverage and methodology

The audit portfolio provides exposure across areas including Asset Management, investment teams, Business Operational Risk and wider Wealth Management activities.

What we're looking for

We are particularly interested in candidates with:

Approximately 5-6 years' relevant experience, including meaningful Internal Audit experience

Financial services experience

A strong understanding of business processes, operational risk and controls

Experience working across the full Internal Audit lifecycle

The ability to develop and execute testing approaches with limited supervision

Strong stakeholder management and communication skills

Experience using data analytics within audit, ideally including large datasets and/or full-population testing

The confidence to challenge constructively and take ownership of your work

Previous Asset or Wealth Management experience would be advantageous but is not essential.

ACA, ACCA, CIA or similar qualifications would be welcomed but are not mandatory where you can demonstrate strong practical Internal Audit experience.

This opportunity is best suited to someone who already understands how an Internal Audit function operates and can contribute from the outset. Candidates looking to move directly from purely External Audit are unlikely to have the experience required.

The opportunity

You'll join a global financial services organisation offering excellent exposure, ongoing development and a genuine opportunity to progress your career within Internal Audit.

Salary: £70,000-£80,000 base + bonus and benefits
Location: London
Working pattern: 4 days per week in the office / 1 day remote

If you're an Internal Auditor looking for broader exposure, greater responsibility and the opportunity to develop within a global financial services environment, please apply with your CV for further information.
