Internal auditing is an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve an organization's operations. It helps an organization accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes. Internal auditing is a catalyst for improving an organization's governance, risk management and management controls by providing insight and recommendations based on analyses and assessments of data and business processes. With commitment to integrity and accountability, internal auditing provides value to governing bodies and senior management as an objective source of independent advice. Professionals called internal auditors are employed by organizations to perform the internal auditing activity.
The scope of internal auditing within an organization is broad and may involve topics such as an organization's governance, risk management and management controls over: efficiency/effectiveness of operations (including safeguarding of assets), the reliability of financial and management reporting, and compliance with laws and regulations. Internal auditing may also involve conducting proactive fraud audits to identify potentially fraudulent acts; participating in fraud investigations under the direction of fraud investigation professionals, and conducting post investigation fraud audits to identify control breakdowns and establish financial loss.
Changes in today’s business environment and the associated risks are only accelerating. Internal auditing requires commitment and a framework of clearly articulated principles, leading-practice standards, and timely guidance that not only acknowledge but also anticipate these changes. For internal audit to keep up with an ever-changing environment, learn how this new International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) is evolving to effectively support the profession and meeting the many challenges ahead.

“My name is Tom and I joined Mazars in 2013 as a graduate working in GRIC (Governance, Risk and Internal Control) based in the Birmingham office. I studied Business Economics and Finance at Loughborough University. My role as an internal auditor involves visiting a client on site and performing a variety of tests to ensure their controls in place to mitigate their risks are working correctly and efficiently. This also includes proposing various recommendations to further improve controls and writing the audit report. I am also studying for the ACCA, which involves attending college throughout the year”. http://graduates.mazars.co.uk/
