Job Description
The Commonwealth Bank of Australia is the leading provider of integrated financial services in Australia. We are committed to continuously improving our governance practices and ensuring they align with business, stakeholders, and customer needs.
Group Audit and Assurance (GA&A) is the internal audit function for the Group. Its primary purpose is to provide independent and objective assurance of the effectiveness of the Group's risk management, controls, and governance processes.
As customer expectations evolve, competitive threats arise, and the pace of change accelerates, GA&A must support the business with new insights and risk coverage that prioritizes customers' needs. We continue to provide insightful assurance to the Board while keeping pace with digital technology and reimagining ourselves with the latest global best technology and innovation.
Over the past three years, GA&A has increasingly embedded digital assurance into audit activities, injecting Artificial Intelligence (AI) into routine control testing and using digital tools to improve the overall experience for employees.
GA&A has increased its team's capacity for high-value judgment-based activities and expanded its support to include sharing knowledge and tools that create better risk coverage across the Bank for all Three Lines of Assurance. With global-best digital tools that harness the power of data, analytics, and AI, GA&A delivers smarter, faster, and safer outcomes to address current and emerging risks and provide better assurance outcomes for our customers and community. GA&A was recognized as an ABA100 winner for both Risk Management and Business Innovation in The Australian Business Awards 2023.
