Internal Audit Services
The role of an Internal Audit Service is to provide assurance to stakeholders, the Board and management that all key risks are being managed effectively.
Outsourced Internal Audit Services
Public and Private sector organisations are increasingly looking to an external provider to deliver Internal Audit Services. This can be for a number of reasons, including lack of in-house resources, financial restrictions and reduction in the overall administrative burden. However, it also ensures that the organisation shall receive independent advice that is specific to their needs.
Goldblatt McGuigan's Internal Audit, Risk & Governance Team deliver outsourced Internal Audit Services to a number of organisations and are responsible for providing independent assurance over their risk management processes, systems of internal control and corporate governance processes.
Co-Sourced Internal Audit Services
There are occasions where an organisation’s in-house Internal Audit Service requires additional skills or support in order to effectively deliver its service. Such instances can range from covering individual staff members on long-term leave, to assisting in completing the Annual Internal Audit Plan, to sourcing specialist resources in specific areas e.g. contract management, procurement, risk management, governance structures, IT Assurance, Fraud Risk Management.
Our Internal Audit, Risk & Governance Team can assist in the delivery of such services including seconding individual members of staff or delivering a certain number of assignments/audit days as part of a partnering arrangement.
We currently deliver such services to the public, private and voluntary sectors across the UK and Ireland.
Our Approach & Methodology
The Goldblatt McGuigan Internal Audit Approach & Methodology is documented in detail within our Internal Audit Manual which provides a comprehensive guide to all members of staff on effective Internal Audit Service delivery.
The key aspect to any methodology and subsequent service delivery is that it complies with, can show ongoing compliance to and can be assessed for compliance with applicable professional standards.
In the case of our Internal Audit Approach & Methodology, it is fully compliant with the IIA (UK & Ireland) International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing and HM Treasury - Government Internal Audit Standards.
