Technology auditors focus on the application controls supporting the business processes, including systems development, application security and entitlements, production management, and technology governance. Both groups are responsible for understanding, analyzing and testing the controls to protect the franchise.
This role will form part of the global Institutional Securities Division (ISG) coverage team with colleagues in New York/ London/ Mumbai/ Hong Kong/Tokyo. Key aspects of the role will include partnering with the broader ISG coverage team to plan and execute global/ regional/ cross-divisional assurance activities as well as maintaining stakeholder relationships.#LI-RG1 #LI-hybrid
