Job description

Job Purpose

The role of a Risk Consultant is to conduct an independent review of the client's operations, providing recommendations that are proportional and in line with industry best practice. As a Risk Consultant, your time would usually be split between working at client premises, working in the office and studying for your professional exams. However due to the current pandemic situation Mazars continues to work remotely only visiting the office and client sites on a restricted basis.

During your first year you will:

  • Learn how to undertake fieldwork using a range of tools and methods in order to review and provide recommendations on the client's business operations;
  • Performing internal audit fieldwork at client sites, testing and reviewing exposure to risk and the effectiveness of the controls in place to mitigate risks;
  • Develop a thorough understanding of the nature of the clients' business, industry best practice, and applicable regulations; and
  • Be able to obtain relevant information from clients whilst building effective rapport with clients' staff.
  • During your second year you will:

  • Be able to take ownership for a whole client review;
  • Begin providing your own solutions and ideas to client scenarios;
  • Perform more challenging technical and financial audits, executing standalone audits under the guidance of a Manager;
  • Self-review your own-work, ensuring minimal review points are raised by managers; and
  • Be able to aid junior team members.
  • In your final year you will be expected to be responsible for planning internal audit work programmes and delivery of fieldwork, including participating in closing meetings with management. In addition, it is expected that a third year trainee will provide on the job advice, training and supervision of junior staff. This will include acting as a point of contact for both management and clients, ensuring that the work is completed within the stated deadlines.
