We are seeking an experienced Senior Internal Auditor to support our Worldwide Amazon Stores Internal Audit Payments team, who can apply broad operational knowledge and sound business judgment to execute operational audits across our diverse businesses and technical environments. This is a high visibility opportunity where you will gain valuable exposure to many areas within our business, and be able to make important improvements that make a real difference.

Our team is cross-functional and you will perform a wide range of operational, technical and regulatory compliance audits, so we are seeking a candidate with broad experience in Operations, Commercial, Compliance, IT and Financial auditing. In this role you will be part of Internal Audit team responsible for auditing payments and insurance business activities. You must also be comfortable performing as a sole contributor and teammate and in doing so will have the opportunity to learn our business, our IT environment, and meet a wide range of stakeholders.

You will work with an Audit Manager conducting end-to-end audits primarily across payments and insurance business activities, and supporting a wider Worldwide Amazon Stores internal Audit team.

In this position, you will dig deep into the details of your audits to develop meaningful findings. You must be able to understand complex business processes and identify the full range of risks related to processes, regulatory compliance, organization, policy, and technology. You should be comfortable interacting with a range of roles, from technical software development engineers to business leaders. You need a sound technical and commercial understanding and the ability to learn new concepts quickly.

You should be able to translate risks into business issues. You will provide consultative support to business partners to identify opportunities for control improvements. You must be an excellent writer who can succinctly communicate complicated issues in business terms. You must be a strong project manager who can manage variable resources and conduct your own audits from beginning to end, often managing multiple projects at once.

If you thrive in a challenging and fast-paced environment, come join us, as you will be part of a vibe of constant improvement, where the things you do one moment, you will not necessarily be doing 6 months later. We don’t like to sit still, which is why we always treat every day like Day 1 -- a day to make more good things happen for our customers. It’s that kind of spirit that drives our success now and keeps us ahead of the competition in the future. And you could be part of it.
