    We will consider flexible working arrangements for any of our roles and also offer work place accommodations to ensure you have what you need to effectively deliver in your role.

    Context for the Role:

    Internal Audit is an independent, objective, assurance function that is critical to meeting our business ambitions whilst also protecting the interests of our customers by ensuring that the internal control, risk and governance frameworks are always fit for purpose. We look beyond financial risks and statements to consider wider issues such as the organisation's reputation, growth, its impact on the environment and the way we treat our customers and employees.

    • Confidence to challenge and critically assess the effectiveness of established procedures and controls; and,
    • An ability to articulate effectively both orally and in writing within the team.

    To succeed you will need to demonstrate the following qualities:

    • Be eager to learn, to take on new challenges, and to take ownership of your work;
    • Be able to build relationships to work collaboratively;
    • Be able to challenge, be challenged, and to value and respect the views of others;
    • Be willing to share your knowledge and ideas and ask for help when you need it;
    • Be able to review and process information quickly; and,
    • Be able to communicate clearly to meet the needs of your audience.

    • Contribute in team activities and treat colleagues with respect to contribute to a positive team environment.
    • Comply with all mandatory conduct, training and disclosure requirements to help ensure that the Internal Audit function is not tarnished.

    We have a diverse workforce and an inclusive culture at M&G plc, underpinned by our policies and our employee-led networks who provide networking opportunities, advice and support for the diverse communities our colleagues represent.
