Are you a motivated and enthusiastic individual with excellent communication skills and experience of managing and controlling work to professional standards? If so, and you are also looking for an opportunity to develop existing skills or learn skills in a new area, a career in internal audit could be the role for you!
The Role:
The Southern Internal Audit Partnership (SIAP) provides internal audit and consultancy services to a wide and growing portfolio of public sector partners and clients in the South of England. We pride ourselves on delivering an innovative, customer-focused service aligned to the business needs of our clients and achieving improved outcomes.
This is supported through our recent External Quality Assessment against the Global Internal Audit Standards in the UK Public Sector that came into effect from April 2025.
SIAP offers a range of progression paths. Through continued support and developmental opportunities, you will be able to progress in your Audit career.
What you’ll do:
In joining the team, you will be responsible for the delivery of assignments using a risk-based audit approach across a portfolio of partners and clients. You will work closely with both internal audit and client managers to establish potential risks and their corresponding control mechanisms, evaluate your findings, and report the outcomes to the client.
What we’re looking for:
As an Auditor, you will be either a qualified Internal Audit Practitioner (IAP) or hold an equivalent qualification (Level 4). Internal audit experience is not essential, but you will be able to demonstrate an understanding of the role of internal audit and have experience of managing and controlling work to professional and quality standards within budgeted deadlines. You will work with experienced colleagues who will support you with your personal development and receive on-the-job training.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
