Job Summary

Scyne Advisory is seeking a Senior Consultant to deliver client-facing internal audit and assurance work across public purpose sectors.

Our Client

One purpose, one practice Scyne is a public purpose specialist, supporting governments, their agencies and not-for-profit organisations to deliver services that build more resilient, equitable, secure and prosperous communities. Their purpose-driven specialistteams span three national practices:

• Transformation   
• Risk, Programs and Cyber
• Commercial, Financial and Infrastructure

Scyne's internal audit and GRC teams help clients improvetheir systems and processes to better achieve their objectives, working on problems that actually matter.

The Team

Scyne's Risk, Programs and Cyber (RPC) team helps clients manage risk with confidence so they can focus on delivering for the community. The team's recommendations shape how public money is spent and how services reach the people who rely on them.This isn't a solo pursuit. Senior and junior consultants sit side by side with clients, back each other in the room, debrief engagements honestly, and are as invested in each other's growth as in the work itself.

The Role

Scyne is growing its internal audit and governance, risk and compliance sub-practices. You'll work across a portfolio of public sector and for-purpose clients, helping them understand where their risks sit and how well their controls are working. No two weeks look the same: testing procurement controls for a health client one week, advising on AI governance in the justice sector the next, always as part of a team. 

Responsibilities

• Leading fieldwork from planning through to reporting, working closely with engagement leads and client stakeholders.
• Building relationships with client teams so you understand how their business actually works, not just what the framework or process map says.
• Testing controls, identifying risk, and turning that into recommendations the client can act on.
• Using AI-led tools and technology to work smarter, so you spend more time on the analysis and conversations that matter.
• Coaching junior team members, contributing to proposals and business development, and building your own technical and leadership capability.

About you

You take real care with the technical detail, tracing risk back to its root cause and backing your findings with solid evidence. You enjoy working alongside other people, communicate well, and are comfortable asking questions and sharing a view.You'll likely bring:

• Two to four years' experience in internal audit or risk advisory, ideally in a professional services environment.
• A working knowledge of internal control frameworks, risk assessment and internal audit methodology.
• The ability to plan and deliver fieldwork with some autonomy, while working closely with the wider team.
• Strong written and verbal communication, including presenting findings to client stakeholders.
• Study towards or completion of a professional certification (CIA, RMIA, CISA, CA, CPA) is a plus, but not essential
•
