Senior Auditor

About the Role

This position serves as a senior professional within the Internal Audit Division of the Broward County Sheriff's Office. The role is designed to provide senior management with expert auditing, forensic accounting, and financial analysis capabilities. Operating at a journey level with advanced professional capacity, the incumbent plans and conducts internal audits, reviews, investigations, and management studies.

The position is critical for promoting organizational efficiency and effectiveness. The incumbent is responsible for comprehensive formal reporting of all findings and formulates recommendations based on those findings. Beyond technical execution, the role involves guiding subordinate staff to ensure audit processes meet professional standards and assisting them in resolving complex issues that fall outside routine procedures. The incumbent exercises considerable initiative and independent judgment in devising improved procedures, interpreting policies, and formulating strategic recommendations to the Director.

The Team and Environment

The Internal Audit Division functions under administrative direction to assess and evaluate the reliability and integrity of management's internal controls. This includes ensuring data integrity, regulatory and procedural compliance, asset integrity, and resource efficiency. The team works closely with administrators, management personnel, elected and appointed officials, and the general public to maintain effective working relationships and ensure accountability.

The work environment is primarily office-based with rare exposure to disagreeable environmental factors. While the role involves extended periods at a keyboard, it also requires the ability to exert light physical effort, including lifting, carrying, pushing, and/or pulling objects up to 10 pounds. The position may also involve operating an agency vehicle.

• Evaluation of training and experience
• Written and computer-based tests
• Interviews
• Polygraph examination
• Psychological evaluation
• Employment record, fingerprint, and background checks
• Medical examination and drug screen

The expected duration of the selection process varies by position and could last 10 to 12 weeks. Reapplication is determined on a case-by-case basis.
