- You have significant internal audit experience within the financial services industry (fintech or digital banking is a plus), with exposure to a wide range of risk areas (e.g., operational, financial, conduct, compliance).
- You have experience working within a group function or in a subsidiary environment, understanding the dynamics between group and local entity requirements.
- You can demonstrate strong technical knowledge and application of relevant financial services regulations in Ireland and the EU, such as requirements from the Central Bank of Ireland (CBI) and the European Banking Authority (EBA), Consumer Protection, MiFID II, PSD2, and AML directives.
- You have a strong understanding of the IIA Internal Audit Standards and are comfortable conducting end-to-end audits with a high degree of autonomy.
