    About the team & role

    This is a 12 month secondment opportunity

    ARQ is a national Business Unit currently operating out of hubs in London, Birmingham and Edinburgh but applications are welcome from all UK locations. We are looking for engaged and enthusiastic individuals who are focused on, and experienced in, delivering high quality audits. Secondment can be offered on a 1 or 2 year basis.

    Secondees into ARQ work closely with our experts in audit methodology, audit quality, NAAE methodology, risk management and accounting. They will experience a broad range of activities and develop skills and expertise to enhance their career and progress in their business unit through the delivery of consistently high quality audits on their return.

    A secondment to ARQ will help you develop an understanding of what high quality looks like, through widening your experience of the challenges faced by a broad range of audit teams. You will be a key part of the firm's commitment to delivering consistently high quality audits, developing problem solving and thought leadership skills, alongside improving your technical skills and knowledge.

    Responsibilities

    The Detail
    To develop high quality auditors, secondees into ARQ are involved in activities across the breadth of audit methodology, audit quality, audit risk management and accounting. We ask all secondees to commit to a portfolio of projects for the duration of their secondment, alongside other ad-hoc projects. All portfolios include one or more of the key activities below (in addition to working as part of the Consult team), based on the existing skill sets, goals, interests of the secondee and resource needs.

    Risk & Quality
    Methodology and training – ARQ identifies emerging practical or technical difficulties, develops guidance and tools, and delivers core technical training to support the delivery of high quality audits. This includes the support and management of the Chief Auditor Network (CAN). Methodology and training directly influence the audit and NAAE activities that the practice carries out on a daily basis. This also involves consultation with the Compliance and Independence teams, widening your network of contacts across the business.

    Risk management – Protecting the firm is central to the activities of ARQ, from contracting challenges to commercial decisions. Global, UK Firm and Audit risk management policies protect the firm from the risks of delivering substandard audits. High quality risk management is critical to the firm in the current regulatory and media-focused market, and fundamental to your developm

    Quality control – Each year the firm undertakes a controls review process to ensure compliance with ISQC1, required to retain the firm's audit licence. ARQ works with the firm's functions, including IT, HC, Compliance, Independence and Partner Affairs, to understand the processes that support audit quality and test the firm's controls. Also forming part of the audit quality control framework, ARQ coordinates and moderates the Engagement Compliance Review (ECR) programme across all audit business units. Both activities are part of the PwC global requirements, and subject to global policies, procedures, oversight and reporting.

    Continuous improvement – ARQ identifies quality issues and best practice examples resulting from a range of annual reviews (AQR, QAD, ECR, QMSE) and other areas such as Regulatory Investigations, performs root cause activities to identify the key causal themes, and ensures that appropriate actions are taken to rectify key causal factors. This enables ARQ and, in turn, the Audit practice to continuously improve the quality of Audits.

    All secondees to ARQ work alongside our experts in providing timely technical support to the practice through responding to consultations on Consult. Secondees will respond to queries covering a wide range of audit risk management issues and methodology challenges, broadening their own experiences and technical skills in doing so.

    Support and coaching structures are in place in each team, enabling new skills to be developed in a safe environment. Many of the projects are undertaken with exposure to senior individuals within the firm, including board members, the ARQ executive, large engagement teams or global colleagues.
