In addition to performing audits, you will have the opportunity to participate in continuous improvement projects to improve the overall efficiency and quality of department activities and deliverables. During your time in GA, you will be provided opportunities to build your audit knowledge with the goal of obtaining an audit certification within two years of joining.

• Partner with more senior members of the GA team to provide recommendations to management for strengthening controls and work with management to develop acceptable solutions to mitigate risk.
• Participate in the development of written reports detailing the results of the audit.
• Build knowledge of CME Group operations, including policies and procedures and any applicable regulatory requirements.

Qualifications:

• Minimum one year of experience conducting internal or external audits.
