The Florida Department of Revenue invites you to join an organization that provides critical services to millions of individuals, businesses, and families across the state. Within the Office of Inspector General (OIG), the Internal Audit Section (IAS) serves as a cornerstone for accountability and integrity. The team is dedicated to maintaining a diverse workforce and providing employment opportunities to veterans and individuals with disabilities. We foster a working environment based on Department values that is free of harassment or intimidation, ensuring a pleasant and productive atmosphere for all.
As a Deputy Audit Director, you will serve as an essential leader within the OIG, reporting directly to the Director of Auditing. This role is designed to assist in managing and overseeing the internal audit function, ensuring that all assurance and advisory activities align with the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) Global Internal Audit Standards, Florida Statutes, and Department policies.

Your work will involve evaluating operational procedures and management practices to identify systematic problems and provide recommendations for continual improvement. You will oversee multiple audit engagements simultaneously, ensuring they are completed on time and adhere to scope, budget, and quality standards. A key part of your day will involve mentoring IAS staff, guiding them through complex audit issues regarding internal controls, fraud risk, and compliance, while reviewing their workpapers and reports for accuracy.
You will also play a vital role in the department's risk management strategy by assisting with the annual assessment of Department risks. Working directly with business process owners and senior management, you will help complete risk analysis, develop risk documentation, and assist in the execution of a risk-based annual audit plan. Additionally, you will support the maintenance of the internal audit quality assurance program and prepare for external quality assessments. As a trusted member of the team, you will have access to confidential personnel, tax, and child support records, requiring the highest level of ethical behavior and trustworthiness.
