About the role

We are a trusted partner to our customers, and ensuring their data is stored and used in a safe and secure manner is our number one priority. As we continue to expand our global business, Retail Insight is working towards getting SOC 2 assurance certification.

As we put in place SOC 2 controls, we need an Internal Auditor to ensure these controls are effective through audits and reviews. You will support the teams in all parts of the business including the Senior Management Team.

A key part of the role is to help us understand the areas where we can give assurance and demonstrate risks are being adequately controlled as well as areas where we need to establish new controls - or improve existing ones.

As the first Internal Auditor for Retail Insight, your challenge is to introduce, establish, and improve the audit function within the business. You will achieve this by helping us to adopt industry best practices whilst drawing on your experience and understanding of our business to develop new practices whilst delivering against the requirements of SOC 2.

Key responsibilities:
  • Carry out audits of internal controls.
  • Facilitate process reviews and ensuring actions from reviews are carried out correctly.
  • Provide regular reports to the senior management team.
  • Establish an audit function for the business and continuously look to improve it.
  • Assess existing controls and identify gaps.
  • Help the business towards gaining SOC 2 assurance and beyond by ensuring both existing and new company policies align with SOC 2 controls, and the audits measure the effectiveness of these controls.
