Internal Audit Scheme

Internal Audit Scheme

Ready to build your future with one of the UK’s largest banks and second largest provider of mortgages and savings?

As part of the Santander Group, we enjoy all the backing of a global bank with 132,000 employees, 69 million customers and 11,180 branches in 40 countries – so we’re really going places. You can join us on our journey.

Starting your Santander career in Internal Audit is an unrivalled opportunity for you to work as part of a global team and learn all about how a bank operates, offering you real insight into our organisation.

The skills and knowledge that you'll develop as an Auditor are highly valued at the most senior levels within Santander and many of our future managers and leaders will come through the Audit path.

You'll join us as a Trainee Auditor and will benefit from a structured development programme which is designed to give you a broad understanding of the key parts of our organisation. We involve Trainee Auditors in a wide range of work including research and evaluation of different parts of the Santander business, testing and evaluation of processes and controls and making recommendations for improvements.

Successful performance should lead to your appointment as a Junior Auditor after around 12 months in the company.

With our support and sponsorship, by the end of the programme you should expect to have made substantial progress toward completion of ACCA (Association of Chartered Certified Accountants), ACA (Association of Chartered Accountants) or CISA (Certified Information Systems Auditor) qualifications. Now you will be ready for promotion to Junior Auditor.

Team working and the ability to liaise professionally with staff at all levels will also be important. On top of business acumen and good problem solving and decision making skills, you must be able to develop productive working relationships and have excellent written and verbal communication skills.

You'll also need to be computer literate and competent in Word and Excel. You will be based at our Head Office in London, but will be required to travel and stay away at other locations to complete audit projects.
