As an IT Auditor at PwC I was responsible for evaluating IT systems, assessing risks, and ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations. I worked closely with financial auditors, risk professionals, and clients to identify weaknesses in IT controls and recommend solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

Assess IT general controls (ITGCs), including access management, change management, system operations, and security.

Evaluate application controls and key automated processes within financial systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Workday).

Identify cybersecurity risks, IT governance issues, and compliance gaps.

Work with clients to remediate control deficiencies and strengthen IT environments.

Support data analytics initiatives by leveraging tools like SQL

Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including external auditors, risk consultants, and client IT teams.

Stay updated on emerging technologies, cloud security, and evolving regulatory requirements (e.g., GDPR, CCPA).
