Staff Auditor

The Staff Auditor works closely with bank management and staff to optimize business processes, identify opportunities for profit improvement, review internal controls, and monitor regulatory compliance.  Using the audit program as a guide, the Staff Auditor will make inquiries and observations of department personnel regarding the department’s processes and compliance with key controls.  The Staff Auditor will also perform analyses and other substantive procedures to corroborate their inquiry and observation work.  The Staff Auditor documents the results of their inquiries, observations, and substantive testing in a clear and concise manner, concluding with their assessment of the area.

The Staff Auditor will use each audit job as an opportunity to enhance their knowledge of the area being examined.  The Staff Auditor will further compliment their on-the-job training with other reference material maintained in the Department.  The Staff Auditor should have a knowl­edge of accounting theory and be gaining an understanding of internal controls and knowledge of the bank's systems.  The Staff Auditor gains an understanding of the organization’s operating policies and banking regulations.  This knowledge will give him/her an ability to identify internal control weaknesses and other problems in the areas being audited.  Some travel is required.
