An exciting opportunity for a Director of Internal Audit to join a leading organisation in Bangkok. You will lead the internal audit function, strengthen governance, risk management, compliance, and internal controls, while partnering with senior stakeholders to drive business improvement. This role is ideal for an experienced audit leader looking to influence strategy and make a meaningful organisational impact.

Key Requirements:

  • Play a key role in shaping the internal audit strategy and influencing senior stakeholders across the business, ensuring that risk management and compliance remain at the forefront of organisational priorities.
  • Enjoy flexible working opportunities within a collaborative and inclusive environment that supports your professional growth and encourages knowledge sharing among teams.
  • Benefit from ongoing training opportunities and access to knowledgeable colleagues who are committed to supporting your career progression within a forward-thinking organisation.

What you'll do:

As Director of Internal Audit, you will play an instrumental role in safeguarding organisational integrity by overseeing all aspects of internal auditing activities. Your day-to-day responsibilities will involve developing strategic audit plans tailored to evolving business needs, guiding your team through complex reviews, and collaborating with leaders across departments to embed robust risk management practices. Success in this position requires you to build trusted relationships with stakeholders at every level while delivering insightful recommendations that drive positive change. By championing continuous improvement initiatives and promoting ethical standards throughout the company, you will help create an environment where compliance is second nature. Your ability to adapt quickly to new challenges while maintaining meticulous attention to detail will ensure that the internal audit function remains both relevant and impactful.

  • Develop and implement comprehensive internal audit plans that align with organisational objectives while ensuring effective risk management and regulatory compliance.
  • Lead, mentor, and support a team of audit professionals by fostering an inclusive environment where knowledge sharing and professional development are prioritised.
  • Collaborate closely with senior management and key stakeholders to communicate audit findings, provide actionable recommendations, and support decision-making processes.
  • Oversee the execution of operational, financial, and compliance audits across various departments to identify areas for process improvement and enhanced controls.
  • Monitor emerging risks and industry trends to proactively adapt audit methodologies and maintain relevance in a changing business landscape.
  • Ensure timely reporting of audit results to executive leadership while maintaining clear documentation standards in line with best practices.
  • Promote ethical conduct throughout the organisation by championing policies that reinforce transparency, accountability, and responsible behaviour.
  • Coordinate with external auditors and regulatory bodies as required to facilitate smooth audits and ensure alignment with statutory requirements.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives within the internal audit function by leveraging technology, data analytics, and feedback from stakeholders.
  • Support the development of risk awareness programmes across the organisation to strengthen overall governance frameworks.

What you bring:

To excel as Director of Internal Audit, your background should reflect substantial expertise in designing and executing comprehensive audit programmes within complex organisations. Your proven ability to nurture talent within your team will be complemented by your skill at forging meaningful connections across departments. A history of successfully navigating regulatory landscapes—combined with recognised professional qualifications—will set you apart as a trusted advisor on matters relating to governance. Your approach should be grounded in empathy, dependability, and a genuine desire to support others’ growth. The ideal candidate brings not only technical proficiency but also emotional intelligence; you understand how best practices can be adapted sensitively for different contexts. Your capacity for clear communication ensures that even challenging messages are delivered constructively. Above all else, your dedication to fostering an inclusive culture where everyone feels valued will underpin your success in this influential position.

  • Extensive experience in internal audit or related fields within large organisations, demonstrating a deep understanding of risk management frameworks and regulatory requirements.
  • Proven track record of leading high-performing teams in a collaborative manner that encourages open communication, knowledge sharing, and mutual respect.
  • Strong interpersonal skills enabling you to build trust-based relationships with stakeholders at all levels while effectively communicating complex information.
  • Professional qualifications such as CIA (Certified Internal Auditor), CPA (Certified Public Accountant), or equivalent credentials are highly desirable for this role.
  • Demonstrated ability to develop strategic audit plans that address both current risks and future challenges facing the organisation.
  • Excellent analytical skills combined with sound judgement when evaluating processes, identifying control weaknesses, or recommending improvements.
  • Experience managing multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining high standards of accuracy under tight deadlines.
  • A commitment to upholding ethical standards in all aspects of work coupled with sensitivity towards diverse perspectives within multicultural environments.
  • Familiarity with data analytics tools or technology-driven approaches for enhancing audit effectiveness would be advantageous but not essential.
  • Outstanding written and verbal communication abilities necessary for preparing reports, presenting findings, and facilitating constructive discussions.

Employees benefit from flexible working arrangements designed to promote work-life balance without compromising on professional ambition.
