IG Group is looking for an Internal Audit Manager to join our Global Internal Audit team in Chicago. You will partner with colleagues in the UK and Poland to evaluate how well the business manages risk, and to give our Board and Executive Management clear, independent assurance and practical insight.
Internal Audit protects the organization’s assets, reputation, and long-term sustainability. Our scope covers the whole business, from trading and brokerage operations to technology, finance, compliance, and customer-facing functions. Your work will follow the Annual Internal Audit Plan, so no two engagements look the same.
This role is a strong next step for a Senior Associate who wants to lead engagements and people, thrives in a fast-paced and team-focused environment, and is genuinely curious about financial markets.
What you’ll do:
- Plan assurance work: Scope engagements using a risk-based approach, define objectives and test procedures, and agree timelines with stakeholders.
- Execute assurance work: Lead fieldwork across a wide range of business activities, including walkthroughs, control testing, data analysis, and evidence review, while keeping workpapers to a high standard.
- Report the results: Write clear, concise reports with well-supported findings and practical recommendations, and present them confidently to senior management.
- Track remediation: Follow up on audit issues, validate that management actions are completed, and escalate overdue or high-risk items.
- Contribute to the audit plan: Help assess emerging risks, support annual risk assessment and audit planning, and keep the team’s methodology current.
- Support governance: Contribute to reporting for the Audit Committee and Executive Management, and coordinate with Risk, Compliance, and external auditors where useful.
- Work across time zones: Collaborate daily with Internal Audit colleagues in the UK and Poland, sharing approach, tools, and insight.
What you’ll need for this role:
- 3 to 5 years of post-qualified experience in Internal Audit, with a background in Internal Audit, Risk, or Compliance.
- A solid grounding in finance and economics, and a real interest in financial markets.
- Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trust and challenge constructively at every level of the business.
- Excellent written and verbal communication, including the ability to turn complex issues into clear messages.
- Sound judgment and an analytical mindset, with comfort working independently in a fast-paced environment.
