About Us

At ANZ, we're shaping a world where people and communities thrive, driven by a common goal: to improve the financial wellbeing and sustainability of our millions of customers.

About the Role

Are you passionate about making a real impact through audit and assurance? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement are valued? If so, we are looking for talented individuals like you to join our team

Internal Audit (IA) serves as the independent third line in ANZ’s three lines of defence (3LOD) governance model. Our IA function is made up of multiple teams that work together to help the bank move at pace safely, leveraging our enterprise-wide perspective and independence.

We currently have permanent opportunities available within Internal Audit across Retail Banking and Business & Private Bank, across the bank. These opportunities include Audit Managers and Senior Audit Managers, which are key to delivering internal audit reviews aligned with the annual audit plan, focusing on risk assessment, control evaluation, and assurance across the bank:

- Audit Managers execute audit engagements of medium complexity, conduct fieldwork and research, and support senior leaders with insights. They help assess risk profiles and anticipate changes in the control environment.
- Senior Audit Managers lead more complex audits, integrating behavioural analysis with traditional audit methods. They specialize in operational audits and collaborate with other internal audit teams, to ensure audits remain responsive to regulatory and strategic developments.

Both roles contribute to strengthening risk management and supporting the bank’s safe, effective, and forward-looking operations.
