Lot Information

Lot 1

Internal Audit Directorate is looking to award a contract for the provision of two qualified, experienced Internal Audit Manager's for an initial period of 4 months. This may be extended for a further 3 months. Audit managers are expected to lead the day to day provision of the audit service to a client area, under the guidance and direction of a Senior Internal Audit Manager. They will be expected to lead on reviews and undertake audit fieldwork without supervision. They may be expected to support and direct more junior audit staff, including trainees, and will therefore, where applicable, be required to undertake relevant quality assurance processes. Their work will be subject to formal quality assurance from a Senior Internal Audit Manager. This must be done in line with Public Sector Internal Audit Standards; the Scottish Public Finance Manual; the Internal Audit Charter, Strategy and Plan, Terms of Reference for assigned audits (which include target dates for project milestones) and the EC regulatory framework where appropriate.
