    Internal Auditor Apprenticeship - London, United Kingdom - Guys and St Thomas NHS Foundation Trust

    Default job background
    Description
    Guy's and St Thomas' is among the UK's busiest and most successful NHS foundation trusts.

    We provide a full range of hospital and community services for people in south London and as well as specialist care for patients from further afield including cancer, renal, orthopaedic, respiratory and cardiovascular services.

    Guy's is home to the largest dental school in Europe and a £160 million Cancer Centre opened in 2016.

    As part of our commitment to provide care closer to home, in 2017 we also opened a cancer centre and a kidney treatment centre at Queen Mary's Hospital in Sidcup.

    St Thomas' has one of the largest critical care units in the UK and one of the busiest emergency departments in London.

    It is also home to Evelina London Children's Hospital.

    Evelina London cares for local children in Lambeth and Southwark and provides specialist services across south east England including cardiac, renal and critical care services.

    We lead a number of specialist service networks aiming to ensure children are treated locally where possible, but have access to specialist expertise when they need it.

    Our community services include health visiting, school nursing and support for families of children with long-term conditions.

    Our adult community services teams deliver care at the heart of the local communities we serve, working in partnership with GPs, local authorities and other healthcare and voluntary sector organisations.

    Working with our partners in Lambeth and Southwark, we are focusing on new ways of working to improve care for local patients.

    In February 2021 the Royal Brompton and Harefield joined Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, bringing together world-leading expertise in the care and research of heart and lung disease.

    Our merger provides a once in a generation opportunity to build a lasting, world-renowned heart and lung centre, providing the highest quality care for patients and conducting world-leading research.

    We have a reputation for clinical excellence and high quality teaching and research. We are part of King's Health Partners, one of eight accredited UK academic health sciences centres.

    In partnership with King's College London we have dedicated clinical research facilities including an MHRA accredited Phase I clinical trials unit.

    Patients are at the heart of everything we do and we pride ourselves on ensuring the best possible patient experience as well as safe, high quality care.

    We are proud to have one of the lowest mortality rates in the NHS. Following a comprehensive Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection in 2019 we maintained our overall rating of 'good'. Our adult community services achieved a rating of 'outstanding'.

    We are one of the largest local employers and we aim to develop and support all our staff so they are able to deliver high quality, safe and efficient care.

    The 2019 NHS staff survey results show that we have one of the most engaged and motivated workforces in the NHS.

    We know this has a positive impact on the care provided to our patients.
    We have one of the most ambitious capital investment programmes anywhere in the NHS.
    Internal Audit Practitioner Level 4 / Level 7
    Band 5 Annexe 21 Agenda for Change
    Salary dependent upon course of study (3 or 5 years) Starting salary is based on 60% or 65% of maximum point plus HCAS

    We are looking for a committed individual who is looking to gain a qualification in Internal Audit via an apprentice programme (level 4 or level 7).

    The Trust will fund the relevant training with a likely recruitment start in mid August 2024 and study intake date of early September 2024.

    You will be given on the job training and undertake a variety of interesting financial and non-financial internal audit assignments and play an important role in helping both Trusts achieve their objectives.

    No previous experience is required for these roles.

    However, you must be committed to studying whilst working full time (with an average of one day per week allowed for study).

    You may be required to devote additional time to studying dependent upon the course. Starting salary is dependent upon the course of study chosen and the length of time to become qualified.

    For example, commencing on a level 4 apprenticeship will attract a salary at 60% of the top of the Band 5 scale (plus HCAS).

    As a qualified Band 5 auditor, the post holder is expected to plan individual assignments, drafting terms of reference and testing programmes for agreement with senior audit staff.

    To work independently, or as part of a team, in the execution of internal audit assignments within agreed deadlines, so that their objectives are met to high standards of quality and in accordance with the Public Sector Internal Audit Standards.

    To prepare, for review by senior audit staff, working papers and draft reports to management on the adequacy and effectiveness of systems of internal control (financial and non-financial), and to recommend improvements as necessary.

    To discuss the results of audit work with auditees and appropriate managers, substantiate recommendations made and agree action plans for improvement, and deal confidently but sensitively with any issues of conflict which might arise.

    Help promote awareness and understanding within the Trust of the role and objectives of Internal Audit.

    The Finance Department provides support to the whole organisation concerning all financial matters and includes an in-house Internal Audit and Counter Fraud function.

    This relatively small team provides independent assurance to the Board and management that the controls within financial and operational systems are working effectively and makes recommendations to improve where weaknesses are identified.

    You will be part of an open and inclusive team of 8 staff, delivering internal audit services to both GSTT and SLaM and be required to attend a variety of locations to conduct internal audit work with at least two to three days per week on site.

    However, you are likely to be required to travel, occasionally, to any of our hospital or community sites across London.

    Depending on your chosen apprenticeship you may be required to travel for block release to study on site at an educational establishment.
