Glasgow | Hybrid Working | Up to £48,000 + Bonus + Group Benefits
Are you a newly qualified accountant or auditor looking to move beyond traditional financial statement audit and build a career within Internal Audit?
Lusona is partnering with a leading financial services organisation to recruit an Internal Auditor into its established Glasgow Internal Audit team.
This is an excellent opportunity for a recently qualified CA, ACCA or equivalent from practice, or an internal auditor already working within financial services, who wants greater exposure to complex financial products, commercial risk and senior stakeholders.
The opportunity
You’ll join a specialist audit team covering Fixed Income, gaining exposure to areas including Foreign Exchange (FX), Credit and Commodities. Rather than focusing purely on historic financial information, you’ll develop an understanding of how a major investment banking business operates, the risks it takes, and the controls used to manage those risks.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Supporting and delivering risk-based audits across the Fixed Income business
- Assessing the effectiveness of controls across front, middle and back-office activities
- Identifying key risks and using your findings to determine areas requiring greater audit focus
- Analysing large and potentially complex datasets to identify trends, exceptions and areas of risk
- Engaging directly with stakeholders to understand processes, challenge controls and communicate findings
- Contributing to continuous monitoring and follow-up work
- Building your technical understanding of investment banking products, risks and regulation
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who are we looking for?
You do not need to already be a Fixed Income specialist. We are particularly interested in speaking with newly or recently qualified accountants and auditors who have the analytical ability, curiosity and stakeholder skills to make the transition into investment banking.
You are likely to have:
- A professional accounting or audit qualification such as CA, ACA, ACCA or IIA, or be approaching qualification in the next year
- Experience gained within external audit, internal audit, financial services or another relevant assurance environment
- Strong analytical skills and confidence working with large volumes of data
- The ability to ask intelligent questions, challenge constructively and form an independent view
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
- An interest in financial markets and developing your understanding of Fixed Income products
- Exposure to data analytics, automation or AI-enabled audit tools would be advantageous – for example Alteryx or similar technologies
