Internal Audit Leader The Opportunity:

As an Internal Audit Leader, you will help advance Booz Allen's internal audit capability by helping develop a modern, risk-based audit approach across key business processes, including finance, procurement, human resources, and operations.

You will serve as a key contributor to the continued evolution of internal audits using data analytics, automation, and AI.

You will help develop the annual audit plan and recommend engagement priorities and resource requirements.

You will partner with process owners, leadership, and other stakeholders to build trusted relationships and evaluate control effectiveness. You will identify gaps, assess root causes, recommend improvements, and help guide the development of sustainable remediation plans and enhanced business processes. As a senior member of the internal audit function, you will monitor the timely resolution of audit findings, escalate significant or overdue issues, support audit quality and continuous improvement activities, and contribute to the development of team members and audit methodologies. Due to the nature of work performed within this facility, U.S. citizenship is required.

  • 12+ years of experience in internal audit, business process risk, controls, or compliance
  • Experience leveraging data analytics, automation, or AI to enhance audit planning, testing, trend analysis, or reporting
  • Experience building trusted relationships with senior and executive leaders of assigned stakeholder areas
  • Experience maintaining an internal audit universe, supporting enterprise-wide risk assessments, and developing or executing an annual risk-based internal audit plan
  • Experience supporting or managing SOX programs, including senior review of testing
  • Ability to synthesize complex information and deliver clear, concise communications tailored to various audiences, including executive leadership
  • Ability to identify root causes, develop practical, action-oriented recommendations, and communicate effectively with executives and both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Ability to work independently, manage multiple engagements, and collaborate effectively across business functions
  • Bachelor's degree

  • Experience developing audit methodologies and improving audit processes
  • Experience applying automation or AI-enabled tools to internal audit activities
  • Experience auditing technology-enabled business processes or partnering with technology audit teams on integrated risks and controls
