Are you an IT Audit specialist ready to step into a highly visible role where your work genuinely shapes the future of a growing alternatives firm? Our client, a boutique and high performing alternative asset manager, is expanding globally and seeking an AVP or VP level IT Auditor to join their world class team.
This is a rare opportunity to work closely with senior leadership, take ownership of critical areas across infrastructure, cyber and cloud security, and contribute to the development of a best in class global audit function during an exciting period of growth and transformation.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Direct access to the Global Head of Audit, providing genuine influence and strategic visibility
A firm on a strong growth trajectory, giving you the opportunity to shape frameworks and uplift audit maturity
A modern and sophisticated technology environment, including cloud native platforms and advanced cyber controls
A boutique culture with the pace, agility and high standards associated with leading investment firms
Your Responsibilities
In this role you will act as the subject matter expert across:
- Infrastructure audits, including network architecture, system resilience, access management and operational security

- Cloud security reviews across Azure or AWS, including configuration, data protection and architectural oversight

- Strong IT audit experience gained within financial services or alternative investments
- Deep technical knowledge of infrastructure, cyber and cloud security
- Confidence when engaging with senior technology leaders
- Relevant qualifications, such as CISA, CISSP, CISM or cloud security certifications
- A proactive, solutions focused mindset with the ability to influence a rapidly evolving environment

- Significant ownership and autonomy within a lean, high performing team
- A collaborative, intellectually curious and ambitious culture
