Job description

Looking for Your Next Opportunity in Internal Audit Consulting?

At DLA, we help organizations strengthen governance, improve internal controls, and manage risk through practical advisory and consulting solutions. Our Internal Audit & Risk Advisory practice partners with leading companies across the manufacturing and consumer products sectors to deliver operational audit, SOX compliance, and enterprise risk advisory services.

We're currently seeking a Partner - Internal Audit (Manufacturing, Consumer Products) to join our growing leadership team. This role is ideal for a senior consulting leader who enjoys building client relationships, leading complex internal audit engagements, and growing a practice within a fast-growing advisory firm.

What You'll Do

As a Partner within the Internal Audit & Risk Advisory practice, you will lead both client delivery and practice growth across manufacturing and consumer products clients.

Your day-to-day responsibilities may include:

  • Building and expanding DLA's Internal Audit and Risk Advisory practice focused on manufacturing and consumer products organizations

  • Developing new client relationships and generating internal audit, SOX advisory, and risk consulting engagements

  • Leading and overseeing multiple internal audit, operational audit, and risk advisory projects

  • Advising executive leadership on internal controls, risk management, and governance frameworks

  • Managing engagement economics including staffing, budgets, and profitability

  • Presenting audit findings and recommendations to CFOs, Controllers, and executive leadership teams

  • Providing mentorship and leadership to consultants and managers across the practice

  • Representing DLA through industry involvement, thought leadership, and market presence

What You'll Bring

We know great leaders come from different backgrounds, but successful candidates will typically bring:

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or related field

  • 15+ years of experience in internal audit consulting, risk advisory, or audit services

  • Deep expertise supporting manufacturing, consumer products, or industrial organizations

  • Strong experience with SOX compliance, internal controls, COSO framework, and operational audit

  • Proven track record of business development and client relationship management

  • Experience leading and scaling consulting teams and audit engagements

  • Professional certification such as CPA, CIA, or CISA preferred

Why DLA

We're not your typical advisory firm. DLA combines the expertise of a national consulting practice with the entrepreneurial spirit of a growing firm. You'll work alongside leaders who value your voice, invest in your growth, and support your career journey.

Here's what sets us apart:

  • Better work-life balance compared to traditional consulting firms

  • Flexible PTO (plus your birthday is a holiday)

  • Direct client exposure and leadership opportunities

  • Clear path to practice leadership and Partner growth

  • Hybrid work model (typically two days per week in office)

  • 401(k) with company match

  • Commuting expense reimbursement

  • Professional development and training opportunities

  • Employee referral and commission programs

Come Be a Part of Our Success Story

At DLA, our work is guided by our core values: People First, Driven to Deliver, Evolve with Purpose, and Stronger Together.

We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace where talented professionals can thrive.
