Our client, a large-scale energy and utilities company at the forefront of regional infrastructure development in Houston, TX (Downtown), is seeking looking for a driven, curious Auditor to join a co-sourced internal audit team on a contract basis. Working under the direction of an Audit Manager or Senior, you will support a range of riskbased audit and advisory engagements — from planning and testing through documentation and reporting. This team’s work is primarily operational in nature, covering gas and electric operations rather than traditional SOX or financial statement audits. Audits are largely planned from scratch, so you won’t be handed a playbook and asked to go through the steps. You’ll be expected to ask good questions, think critically, and help build the work as you go.

Draft audit deliverables — including scope documents and audit reports — in a clear, concise manner
Leverage automated analysis tools to support audit activities
Meet deadlines, adhere to quality standards, and escalate issues appropriately
Support special projects and investigations as assigned
Requirements:
1–3 years of experience in audit, accounting, finance, compliance, or operational disciplines
Internal or external audit experience strongly preferred
operational audit background is ideal
Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related business field — required
MBA, CPA, or CIA preferred, or demonstrated intent to pursue
