Internal Audit Manager jobs in Singapore

There are a number of key duties which come under the remit of an Internal Audit Manager, each of which will be crucial to the continuing success of the employer. They include the preparation of reports, the creation of processes, managing risks, assessing responsibilities and researching potential issues with compliance. It’s a complex role, but it’s an exciting one for the right people.

To be a success as an internal audit manager, you’ll need to be an excellent communicator because you’ll be reporting to senior managers and liaising with various departments on a regular basis. You’ll have to display an ability to work alone and within a team, you’ll be an extremely analytical and meticulous individual and you’ll be a good decision-maker when it comes to evaluating data and reacting to it.

Internal Audit Managers in Singapore often work for corporations with a global interface, and as a result of this they will regularly have to work on issues relating to both national and international markets. The role offers a great deal of variety in any given working week, allied to an excellent salary and some very good benefits packages. As you might expect from such a crucial role, if you have the experience and the talent to stand out from the crowd, you can expect to be in great demand from potential employers.
