Lead Auditor

Lead Auditor

Department: Audit

Employment Type: Permanent

Location: Manchester, UK

Reporting To: Regional Operations Manager

Please note, that a full driving licence is required as this is a field based role.

We are growing our Lead Auditor teams across the UK! At ISOQAR, we draw on our experience, knowledge, and ambition to empower organisations to achieve their highest potential.

Due to our continuous expansion, we are currently seeking skilled Lead Auditors as well as enthusiastic trainees to join our growing Lead Auditor teams. These teams play a crucial role in supporting a diverse range of clients across the UK.

Ideal candidates will possess a deep understanding of industry-specific processes, policies, and regulations, enabling them to effectively audit clients. While prior internal audit experience is advantageous, it is not a prerequisite, as we provide thorough training through our academy.

Upon completing our Global and Divisional inductions, successful candidates will undergo a comprehensive 12-week training programme. This programme encompasses both classroom sessions and on-site learning opportunities, working closely with a Senior Lead Auditor.

What that means day to day

The life of a Lead Auditor is both fun and varied, and no two days are the same.

The responsibilities include:

• Getting to know our clients and their products
• Hosting opening meetings - let's help our clients understand their audit process as much as we can
• Leading on the audit - this is where your subject matter expertise comes into play
• Report writing - now the audit is complete, it is time to finalise it and turn your hard work into a report for the client to receive
• Ongoing learning and development - if you join us with knowledge of just one standard, we will train and upskill you to be able to audit against others

What you'll need to be successful

We are looking for candidates with a robust background and hands-on experience within one or more of the industries mentioned above. Previous involvement in audits or audit processes is preferred.

As this role will involve regional and national travel, you should be comfortable with overnight stays and have a full driving licence. As you will be working with several industries, you should be a confident communicator both verbally and written and have positive influencing skills.
