Join us. But be you. At Deloitte, you’ll do more than just join something, you’ll add something.  You’ve found a place that values your curiosity, passion, and desire to work alongside brilliant people on the things that really matter. There really is only one question: What impact do YOU want to make?

We’re looking for a Senior Consultant to join our Internal Audit and Controls Assurance team in Christchurch.

You’ll work with a fantastic range of organisations, tackle genuinely varied business challenges and build relationships with people from operational teams through to senior executives. Along the way, you’ll get exposure to different industries, specialist expertise from across Deloitte and opportunities that can accelerate your development considerably.

If you’re curious, commercially minded and want a role where you can keep learning rather than doing the same thing every day, we’d love to talk.

The team you’ll join:

This is a role where you’ll get to see how some of New Zealand’s most interesting and complex organisations really work.

Based in our Christchurch office, you’ll join Deloitte’s national Internal Audit and Controls Assurance practice, working with a diverse portfolio of leading organisations across the public and private sectors. Our work gives you exposure to different industries, operating models, leadership teams and business challenges. You’ll work directly with experienced Deloitte leaders, subject matter specialists and senior people within our clients’ organisations. That exposure means you’ll build more than technical assurance skills. You’ll develop a strong understanding of how organisations operate, make decisions, manage risk and navigate change.

Rather than focusing solely on financial reporting outcomes, our work looks at how processes, systems and controls operate in practice, assessing whether risks are appropriately managed and controls are designed and operating effectively.

You’ll collaborate in planning internal audits, managing fieldwork, evaluating control design, and assessing the effectiveness of internal controls to ensure their integrity.

For someone wanting to accelerate their career, it’s an opportunity to build breadth quickly while becoming a trusted adviser to our clients.

The impact you’ll make:

No two engagements are the same. One week you might be understanding how a major organisation manages a critical operational risk; the next you could be reviewing a transformation programme, procurement process, regulatory obligation or emerging risk.

You’ll:

• Lead internal audit and controls assurance engagements from planning through to reporting.
• Spend time with people across our clients’ organisations, from operational teams through to senior leaders, understanding how their businesses really work.
• Get beneath the process to understand what matters, where the risks are and what could be done better.
• Turn your analysis into practical insights and recommendations that clients get genuine value from.
• Collaborate with specialists from across Deloitte such as technology, cyber, data, finance, tax, and others.
• Coach and develop junior team members, supporting their technical capability and career development.

Your expertise:

• Have around 3+ years’ relevant professional experience and are ready to take greater ownership of their work.
• Experience gained within a professional services or large corporate environment is well regarded.
• Can build relationships and communicate confidently with people at different levels of an organisation.
• Can think beyond a checklist, exercise professional judgement and translate issues into practical solutions.
• Enjoy working as part of a team and helping more junior colleagues develop.

You don’t need to arrive knowing everything. We’re looking for someone with strong foundations, curiosity and the ambition to keep developing.

Making an impact that matters, together:

We are driven by our desire to create positive outcomes for our clients, communities, and people. Everything we do is with intent - the intent to make a meaningful difference.

Our shared values are at the heart of everything we do. Living these values, including ‘taking care of each other’ and ‘fostering inclusion’, is essential to ensuring everyone feels included at work and able to reach their full potential. For us to succeed and thrive as an organisation, we understand the importance of creating a culture where diverse perspectives matter and where everyone is given an equal opportunity to grow and develop.

How you’ll be rewarded:

We hold a simple belief – that our people’s hard work should be recognised and rewarded beyond their remuneration. The Deloitte experience is founded on concepts of trust, balance, wellbeing and the importance of personal connection.

We offer you:

• Flexible work arrangements – work in a way that suits you, us and our clients best   
• Subsidised professional qualifications and paid professional memberships
• Subsidised health insurance
• Income protection insurance
• 22 days annual leave
• Social events, social sports teams, and monthly firm drinks
• A focus on wellness and well-being
• Community focused volunteer days
• A focus on the environment and sustainability
• Plus much more

This is a great opportunity to grow your role, career and impact!
