At Julius Baer, we celebrate and value the individual qualities you bring, enabling you to be impactful, to be entrepreneurial, to be empowered, and to create value beyond wealth. Let’s shape the future of wealth management together.

The Internal Auditor for our Group Internal Audit (GIA) team based in Singapore will have primary responsibilities over key Julius Baer locations in the Asia region. The Internal Auditor will be part of a dynamic and highly collaborative team, and will be responsible for leading / conducting independent, objective and risk-based audits in accordance with the annual audit plan.
In planning and executing risk-based audits, the Internal Auditor must comply with local practices (including regulatory expectations), BJB published internal audit manual, as well as with the Standards for Professional Practice of Internal Auditing by the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA). Progressively, we also apply Data Analytics to gather audit evidence on a continuous basis. In addition to planned audits, the Internal Auditor may at times be instructed to carry out special assignments or investigations.
In accordance with the Charter of GIA, the Internal Auditor is independent from other operating functions and has no executive role to play. However, the Internal Auditor may provide certain advice if and when asked (e.g., advice management on risks, exposures and infrastructure related matters). Any such advice provided must not compromise the independence (fact and/or appearance) of GIA.
The Internal Auditor is required to assist and support the Asia Head of Internal Audit in the day-to-day activities of GIA.
