Reporting directly to the Board Audit Committee and senior management, you will lead the Internal Audit Department, set strategic direction, and ensure compliance with both local regulations and global standards. In this role, you will design and execute risk-based audit plans, oversee end-to-end audit processes, and present comprehensive reports to the Board Audit Committee.

Collaboration is key—you will work closely with stakeholders across front-line and support functions, as well as regional counterparts, to share best practices and maintain consistent standards across the organization. Key Responsibilities: Develop and lead the regional audit strategy to ensure alignment with global and local objectives. Present comprehensive reports on audit activities to the Board Audit Committee, providing insights into governance, risk management, and control effectiveness. Cultivate strong relationships with key stakeholders to facilitate effective audits and foster collaboration in risk mitigation. Partner with head office and regional colleagues to share audit outcomes and drive consistent implementation of best practices.

Strong technical knowledge of governance frameworks such as IPPF, Bank Negara Malaysia guidelines, and corporate governance codes is essential, along with proven ability to manage complex risk assessments and implement quality assurance initiatives. Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills are required, and professional qualifications such as CIA or CA are highly desirable. Additional requirements include: Proven ability to develop audit strategies aligned with global directives and local regulations. Demonstrated track record in managing complex risk assessments across market, credit, operational, and compliance areas. Excellent communication skills for presenting findings to board committees and preparing regulatory reports. A collaborative mindset with a passion for sharing knowledge regionally and implementing best practices.
