Job Description About the role: We are looking for an Internal Controls & Assurance Manager to join our newly created Internal Controls & Assurance (IC&A) function. This is an excellent opportunity for a hands-on control-assurance professional who wants to help shape a new function from day one. As the principal hands-on assurance expert in the team, you will assess whether controls across financial, operational, technology, compliance and reporting processes are appropriately designed and operating effectively, and you will help our business teams apply the Internal Control Framework in practice. Reporting to the Director, Internal Controls & Assurance, you will run walkthroughs, testing, evidence evaluation and deficiency assessments, build Risk and Control Matrices, and work directly with process owners across the company on remediation. You will work with leading GRC software (AuditBoard/Optro) and have plenty of room to standardise and automate the way controls are tested. About your tasks: Control Assessments & Testing Execute risk-based control assessments across Finance, Technology, HR, Operations, Pharmacy, Compliance and other relevant functions, covering both design and operating effectiveness. Perform walkthroughs with process and control owners to understand processes, risks, control objectives, control execution and the evidence retained. Evaluate whether controls are appropriately designed to mitigate the identified risks, and clearly document design gaps and recommendations. Test operating effectiveness using appropriate populations, samples and evidence, and maintain complete, traceable, high-quality working papers. Deficiencies & Remediation Identify and assess control exceptions and deficiencies, propose severity ratings and escalate significant or disputed matters to the Director. Agree remediation actions with first-line owners, monitor due dates and retest to confirm that priority failures have been effectively addressed. Framework Rollout, Tools & Continuous Improvement Develop and maintain Risk and Control Matrices and support risk-to-control mapping with Enterprise Risk Management and business control coordinators. Advise business teams on practical control design, ownership, frequency and evidence requirements. Keep control, testing, deficiency and remediation data accurate in AuditBoard/Optro and contribute to reliable Management dashboards and the Management Assurance Report. Support the framework rollout into new domains, train control owners and coordinators, and find opportunities to standardise or automate controls and evidence collection. Qualifications About you: Several years of hands-on experience in internal controls, assurance, internal audit, SOX/ICFR or a comparable control-testing environment, either in-house or in audit/advisory. Practical experience performing walkthroughs, assessing control design and testing operating effectiveness. Strong skills in determining appropriate samples, evaluating evidence and producing clear, review-ready working papers. Experience identifying control deficiencies, assessing their significance and discussing findings and remediation with process owners. Working knowledge of Risk and Control Matrices and internal-control frameworks such as COSO, SOX or equivalent. Experience across several business processes, such as Finance, IT, HR, Operations, Compliance or Supply Chain. Confidence to challenge managers and senior process owners constructively. Experience with AuditBoard/Optro or another GRC platform, and a professional qualification (or progress toward one) such as CIA, CPA, ACCA or CISA, is a plus. Experience in a listed, regulated or international organisation and exposure to healthcare, pharmacy, e-commerce, logistics or technology is a plus. Fluent in English; German is a plus.
