Our main services include internal audit, counter fraud, information governance and risk management. We’re owned by our member councils, meaning our work sits at the heart of the public sector. Our main offices are in York, Northallerton and Leicester but we provide services across the country.
Location

You may be required to attend our offices for meetings and training events, visit client offices or other premises, and undertake other client related activities. During the induction period, we will expect employees to work in one of our main offices for a number of days. This is to support training and learning, and to provide you with the opportunity to meet other team members.
