  • Drive continuous improvement within the function through innovation and efficiency, including questioning existing methodologies.
  • Training and development opportunities will be fully supported, with an emphasis on self-direction to ensure skills and expertise remain relevant and valuable.
  • This role will require global travel, primarily within Europe, with occasional trips to the Middle East and Latin America. Overall, travel is estimated to be around 30-40%.

Skills and Qualifications

  • Exceptional organizational abilities coupled with strong time management skills.
  • Proficient written and verbal communication skills in English, with business-level proficiency in Spanish. Knowledge of Italian is advantageous but not mandatory.
  • Proven ability to establish credibility and rapport with stakeholders at all levels.

  • Proficient in Microsoft Office applications, particularly Excel; experience in data analytics is viewed favorably.
  • Highly motivated, proactive self-starter with a collaborative and supportive team spirit.

Knowledge and Experience

  • A professional qualification in finance, business, or the insurance sector is highly desirable.
  • A consistent record of performance in either internal or external audit roles, demonstrating the ability to conduct high-quality audit work and deliver comprehensive findings and reports.
  • Experience in presenting and communicating information clearly and objectively, facilitating discussions to build consensus and drive actionable outcomes.
