GRC/IRM Technology Solutions Consultant - Experienced Associate

Atlanta, GA

A career in our Risk Management and Compliance Solutions Technology practice, within Internal Audit services, will provide you with an opportunity to gain an understanding of an organisation's objectives, regulatory and risk management environment, and the diverse needs of their critical stakeholders. We focus on helping organisations look deeper and see further considering areas like culture and behaviours to help improve and embed controls. In short, we seek to address the right risks and ultimately add value to their organisation. Our team helps business leaders drive effective governance, risk and compliance programmes through our controls testing and monitoring solutions. As a part of the team, you'll help combine advanced data analysis and leading technology tools to offer our clients a sustainable yet high quality and efficient approach to managing their compliance. By integrating disconnected risk and compliance programs and unifying fragmented technology solutions, our clients gain an enterprise wide view of risk and are better equipped to respond to regulatory needs while balancing cost-takeout and digital transformation of risk management.
