Position Overview:
The Internal Audit Manager establishes and leads the design, execution, and continuous improvement of the company's internal audit function. The ideal candidate will possess strong knowledge of internal controls, risk assessment, and audit methodologies, along with exceptional analytical skills and sound professional judgment. This role requires a proactive, detail-oriented professional who can evaluate the effectiveness of financial, operational, and compliance controls across the organization; identify opportunities to strengthen processes; and partner with leadership to promote a culture of accountability and continuous improvement.
What You’ll Do
Essential Functions: (Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.)
- Draft and maintain the internal audit charter for board approval; establish methodology, working-paper standards, and quality practices for the function.
- Conduct an annual enterprise-wide risk assessment through structured interviews with functional leaders and a wider survey, with any necessary review of financial, operational, and technology data; translate the results into a risk-based annual audit plan for management and board approval.
- Plan and execute five to ten audits per year end-to-end: scoping, walkthroughs, control testing, sampling, documentation, and reporting.
- Issue clear written reports with rated findings, root-cause analysis, business impact, and practical recommendations; negotiate management action plans with named owners and due dates.
- Maintain the remediation tracking process; independently validate closure and report aging of open items.
- Administer the ethics and compliance hotline: manage the intake platform and reporting channels, log and triage every report, route matters to the appropriate owner, track matters to disposition, maintain confidentiality and anti-retaliation protections, and report volume, categories, and trends periodically.
- Conduct or manage ad hoc investigations of allegations including fraud, expense and travel abuse, conflicts of interest, policy violations, and misuse of company assets — planning the investigation, conducting interviews, performing data and document analysis, and documenting findings in a written report. Coordinate with the General Counsel on matters implicating legal risk, privilege, or outside counsel.
- Assess and implement third-party software: evaluate, select, and implement the hotline/case management platform and audit management tooling for the function, and build the supporting processes around them.
- Report to senior management and the board on plan progress, significant findings, hotline activity, and remediation status; communicate significant findings promptly rather than waiting for the annual cycle.
- Where needed, engage and manage co-sourced specialists — including a third-party internal audit or risk advisory firm — to supplement capacity, enhance audit procedures and methodology, and perform technical or forensic work: scoping, oversight, and integration of results.
- Advise on control design for new systems, processes, and acquisitions without assuming ownership of those controls.
What You'll Bring
Required
- Five or more years in internal audit, IT audit, public accounting, forensic/investigative services, or a comparable risk function, including audit work from planning through reporting.
- Experience contributing to a risk assessment and translating risk into audit scope.
- Working proficiency in IT general controls: logical access and identity management, change management, and vendor and cloud/SaaS risk.
- Strong written communication; able to produce a report an executive or board member will read and act on.
- Sound judgment and discretion in handling confidential and sensitive matters.
Preferred
- Hotline administration or case management experience.
- Investigative interviewing training or experience (CFE, or comparable practical background).
- Experience in a private equity–owned or sponsor-backed environment.
- Prior first-auditor or function-building experience.
- Experience selecting and implementing audit management or hotline/case management software.
- Data analytics capability sufficient to test full populations rather than samples.
- Familiarity with the IIA's Global Internal Audit Standards and a recognized control framework (COSO, NIST CSF, CIS Controls).
Education
- Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, information systems, or a related field.
- CIA, CPA, CISA, CFE, or CISSP (or equivalent), or active pursuit.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as an Audit Specialist
Get your credentials formally evaluated first
Australian accounting qualifications from CPA Australia or CA ANZ aren't automatically recognized in U.S. job applications. Request a credential evaluation from a NACES-approved body before you apply so employers can confirm your degree meets the E-3 visa specialty occupation standard.
Target firms with active DOL LCA filings
Big Four firms and large regional accounting practices file Labor Condition Applications with the DOL regularly, which signals genuine E-3 sponsorship capacity. Filtering for employers with recent LCA disclosure data cuts your search down to companies already comfortable with the process.
Search verified sponsoring employers on Migrate Mate
Use Migrate Mate to find Audit Specialist roles from employers already set up to sponsor E-3 visas. The platform surfaces positions matched to your visa status so you're not cold-applying to roles where sponsorship is an afterthought.
Clarify your CPA licensure status before interviewing
U.S. audit roles often require or prefer a CPA license. Your Australian CPA credential doesn't automatically transfer, but several U.S. states offer reciprocity pathways. Knowing your licensure status going into interviews prevents late-stage offer complications.
Confirm the LCA is filed before you resign
Your employer must file and receive a certified LCA from the DOL before you can attend your consular interview. Don't give notice at your current job until that certification is in hand, LCA processing typically takes seven business days but can run longer.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for the paperwork
Once you have an offer, use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork end-to-end. For audit roles with complex employer structures, having a dedicated expert manage the process reduces the risk of documentation errors that delay your consulate appointment.
E-3 Visa Audit Specialist: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Audit Specialist jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Use Migrate Mate to search for Audit Specialist roles from employers already set up to sponsor E-3 visas. Generic job boards don't filter by visa sponsorship type, so you end up cold-applying to positions where sponsorship is uncertain. Migrate Mate surfaces roles matched to E-3 status specifically, so you're targeting employers who already understand the process.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does an Audit Specialist role qualify as a specialty occupation for E-3 purposes?
Yes. Audit Specialist positions typically require at least a bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, or a related field, which meets USCIS's specialty occupation standard for E-3 eligibility. Roles requiring a CPA or advanced accounting credentials strengthen the case further. Where a job posting accepts any bachelor's degree regardless of field, that can weaken the specialty occupation argument, so degree alignment matters.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Australian auditors?
The E-3 is significantly more practical for Australian auditors than the H-1B. There's no lottery, no annual cap that gets exhausted, and renewals are available every two years indefinitely. The H-1B requires employers to enter a randomized lottery where selection is not guaranteed. For Australians, the E-3 is a direct, repeatable path that doesn't depend on luck.
Can I switch audit employers while on an E-3 visa?
Yes, but the new employer must file a fresh LCA and you'll need a new E-3 visa stamp before re-entering the U.S. if yours has expired. If your current visa stamp is still valid, you may be able to begin work with the new employer once the LCA is certified, but the exact timing depends on your specific situation and consulate guidance.
