  • Support fraud‑related activities, including participation in targeted fraud reviews or investigations, as needed.
  • Track audit findings and follow up on remediation activities to validate closure.
  • Build effective working relationships with business partners and act as a credible audit contact during engagements.
  • Contribute to the continued development of audit tools, techniques, and ways of working.
  • This role will require domestic and international travel (approximately 10% - 20%).
