About the role:
The Senior or Supervisor is an experienced auditor proficient in the day-to-day tasks of executing an audit and may have experience in the “lead” role of executing an engagement and supervising junior staff.
About the team:
As trusted advisors to management, FIS Internal Audit provides independent audits of operational, financial, IT, and regulatory compliance processes in the fast-paced fintech industry. While challenging ourselves to think outside the box to make the business better, we work collaboratively to conduct risk-based assessments and deliver high value findings to assist FIS in achieving its goals. Collectively, we are a team of inclusive, diverse, and performance driven self-starters. To support our associates, we provide a clear career path and reward performance by promoting from within.
