Each audit department is structured a little bit differently, and
whether you are working on a team of internal auditors or
external auditors will impact the specific role and
responsibilities you have.

A senior auditor must also be able to deal with issues that

arise during an engagement. While the audit plan developed
by the team is the road map for the engagement, there may
be situations when exceptions are identified and additional
work is required to be conducted. In these situations, the
senior auditor is responsible for deciding the plan of action.
He has to strike a balance in conducting a comprehensive,
risk-based audit avoiding any legal issue whatever might be
the situation is!

The demands of the job are extensive and our coverage in the
training course matches with the demands.
