SUMMARY:
If you enjoy solving complex problems, working with smart people, and making risk make sense, apply now.

POSITION INFO:
Love tech, controls, and figuring out how things actually work behind the scenes? If IT risk, governance and assurance are your thing - and you enjoy having a real seat at the table - this role might just be your sweet spot.

A leading global professional services firm is looking for an IT Audit Senior Associate to join its Technology Risk & Assurance team in Johannesburg. You’ll work with top-tier clients, support C-suite decision-making, and help organisations strengthen their IT controls and risk environments.

Duties:

Leading and delivering IT risk and assurance engagements across diverse industries

Strong analytical, communication and stakeholder management skills
Confidence working with data, controls, and complex systems
Professional certifications (CPA, CIA, CISA, CISSP, and CFE) - a big plus, not a deal-breaker
Someone curious, proactive, and not afraid to speak up with better ideas

Why This Role Stands Out:

Exposure to high-impact clients and meaningful risk work
Clear career progression in a structured global environment
Flexibility and a strong total rewards offering
A culture that values integrity, ideas, and growth (not just hours logged)
