Overview

Partner Financial are working with an international, Private Equity backed business with operations throughout the UK, Asia, and the United States. Recent growth has seen the organisation exceed £2billion in annual revenue, a feat achieved through exceptional delivery on mandates built on reliable customer relationships based on trust and collaboration. A strong client portfolio combined with such quality of service has established our client as one of the leaders within their sector. Such growth across the organisation requires a stringent due diligence approach to ensure compliance, which is why the need for a Business Assurance Analyst has been highlighted.

Reporting directly to the Business Assurance Manager, this opportunity will ultimately be responsible for building relationships with key stakeholders across the group while ensuring current controls and processes are standardised to help implement cost saving efficiencies to stimulate further growth. Although based in London, given the expanding geographic nature of the organisation, this role will require a degree of travel across the UK and European business, estimated at 50%.

Key responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Reporting to the Business Assurance Manager, Risk Committee and other key stakeholders as necessary providing an update on progress, including report findings, outcomes; actions and suggested areas for improvement
  • Attending sites and offices across the business to conduct both financial and operational audits
  • Identifying key risks within the control framework, setting action plans and coaching financial and non-financial stakeholders to drive business process improvement
  • Collaborating with stakeholders to form effective working partnerships to help drive compliance; using facts and data to influence an outcome
  • Identifying and highlighting key risks within the control framework
  • Working with the Business Assurance Manager to set up and maintain an annual work plan.
  • Reporting findings and suggestions for improvements to the Risk Committee and business leads.
  • Working with the Business Assurance Manager to understand and address any feedback with regards to the control environment
  • Supporting projects and investigations on an ad-hoc basis as necessary
  • Delivering one to one coaching and training courses/presentations to help drive business process improvement, share new ideas, and develop policy compliance

Skills and Experience required:

  • Internal Audit with a finance process management background
  • Excellent Commercial awareness, with the ability to balance ‘value protection’ with ‘value enhancement’ to drive improvements
  • Must be detailed, analytical, and able to identify trends or anomalies
  • A driving license is essential due to the travel requirements

If you have not heard from me within these timescales, thank you for your interest but please consider your application unsuccessful on this occasion.
