What you do

Lead and execute audit engagements end to end — from planning and scoping through fieldwork, reporting, and closure — across underwriting, claims, finance, sales, IT etc.
Own the delivery of assigned audits in line with the IIA Standards, regulatory requirements, and Allianz Group policies and functional rules.
Assess the design and operational effectiveness of internal controls, risk management practices, and governance frameworks; identify root causes and agree on practical, risk-based improvements with management.
Design and apply data-driven audit approaches, including analytics on full populations rather than samples, and translate results into clear audit conclusions.
Review the working papers of junior colleagues, provide on-the-job coaching, and act as a point of reference for methodology questions.
Draft audit reports and findings for senior management, and present and defend conclusions in discussions with auditees at management level.
Maintain a continuous dialogue with business stakeholders on the risk landscape and monitor the timely and effective remediation of open issues.
Drive initiatives to improve the audit function — digitalization, analytics tooling, methodology enhancements — and contribute to the annual audit planning and risk assessment.
