Your Opportunity
We believe that, when done right, investing liberates people to create their own destiny. We are driven by our purpose to champion every client's goals with passion and integrity. We respect and appreciate the diversity of our employees, our clients, and the communities we serve. We challenge conventions strategically to create value for our clients, our firm and the world. We live and bring to life the concept of 'own your tomorrow' every day. We champion our employee strengths, guide their development, and invest in their long-term success.

As we enter our fifth decade, we are looking for talented, innovative and driven people who believe they can help themselves, and our clients, create a better future.
Our Opportunity:
The Internal Audit Department (IAD) of The Charles Schwab Corporation provides independent and objective assessments to figure out whether all significant risks are identified and appropriately reported by management and risk functions to the Board and Executive Management, to evaluate whether risks are adequately controlled, and to challenge Executive Management to improve the efficiency of governance processes, risk management, and internal controls.
The Technology enterprise team is seeking a Senior IT Auditor (Senior Specialist - Technology) primarily responsible for performing infrastructure audits.

Project audits are assessments over key initiatives to figure out whether intended business objectives were met and to identify risks or issues early.
Reporting to a Senior Manager of the Technology enterprise team, the Senior IT Auditor will have responsibility for assisting in the independent and objective assurance activity designed to improve the organization's operations and compliance with key regulations by evaluating and improving the efficiency of risk management, control, and governance processes specifically around the firm's IT infrastructure, operations and security programs.

  • Issue Management and Validation: Conduct validation testing of the audit issue action plans completed by the business.
  • Risk Assessment: Under the supervision of IAD Management, participate in the annual Risk Assessment process, including scheduling and participation in meetings with partners, and the scoring and documentation of risk ratings.
  • Coaching: Provide support, mentoring, and feedback to audit team members throughout the audit. Provide assistance with onboarding and ongoing support to new team members.
  • Administration/Training: Completion of firm-wide and departmental administration and training requirements.
  • Other Initiatives/Special Projects: As needed, assist with special projects related to business process improvement or internal team needs.

What you have
  • 3 - 5+ years of IT audit experience with growing responsibility. Financial services and/or Big 4 Accounting experience a plus.
  • Demonstrated experience performing internal audits and their associated team members, among a complex operational and regulatory environment.
  • Ability to work as a member of a project team and cultivate a strong working relationship with external co-sourcing providers and internal lines of businesses.
  • CPA, CIA, or CISA strongly preferred. Other relevant certifications will be considered.
  • Understanding of risks and internal controls and the ability to evaluate and figure out adequacy and effectiveness of controls.
  • Knows the latest on industry and regulatory issues and standard methodologies; imparts this knowledge to the team and the auditees.
  • Excellent analytical skills, including the ability to anticipate issues and to design appropriate solutions.
