Internal Audit, Risk, and Governance Services

Many businesses may be missing out on growth, success, and efficiency maximisation by viewing all audits as number-crunching exercises.

Internal audit, risk and governance services is about far more than just checking your figures, and we encourage businesses to learn the art of managing key risks so that they can protect the business.

A robust internal audit function provides core safety, all while facilitating growth and scale initiatives.

Internal audit can help you identify hidden gaps in governance, plug vulnerabilities, and streamline complex processes to ensure maximised operational efficiency.

We can provide the following services under the internal audit, risk, and governance service line umbrella, either as a fully outsourced function, co-sourced support alongside your team, or as short on-demand specialist reviews.

We can help you with:

While we are considered industry-agnostic due to the breadth of experience with a range of sectors, there are specific industries that may benefit more from our experts.

Not-for-profit and the public sector may be stretched by the rigorous regulatory pressures, which can feel like a barrier to smooth operations.

Financial services, especially fintech and cryptocurrency, are on the cutting edge and similarly struggle to stay agile without close maintenance and control.

These sectors face particularly unique challenges, and we have the sector-specific expertise to unlock the full potential of any business working within these fields.

If you’re scaling fast, entering regulated markets or preparing for funding, then you should be thinking about the ways internal audit, risk and, governance services can help you.

A robust internal audit function gives you independent oversight so that you can fix any inefficient processes or deal with any issues before they begin to hold you back.

For any business that cares about protecting value and inspiring growth, internal audit could be the key.

Whatever you are looking for in an internal audit function, we can make it happen.

Whether that’s a high-level review to give your board and shareholders assurance that operations are well controlled, or a more detailed plan of what your business could look like over the next few years.

We understand that every business is unique, and our audits are suited to match the individual challenges that you face.

You can fully outsource your entire internal audit function, including plans, fieldwork and board reporting.

These will all be managed end-to-end by our team.

Alternatively, a co-sourced model lets us augment your own auditors or Head of Audit, filling temporary resource shortages or adding deep expertise where it is most needed.

If you only require a couple of high-impact reviews to get your business into a better shape, we can slot in as your on-demand specialist.

Internal audit is not just a box-ticking exercise.

We design and document the very frameworks that underpin sound governance.

This might involve crafting risk matrices and formal policies, or it could see us mapping out the key business processes that need refining.

Our aim is to leave you with clear, auditable structures that will keep your business growing long after the audit is over.

We will work through each area of your business, eliminating unnecessary steps and processes, tightening hand-offs and boosting operational efficiency so your teams can devote time to value-adding work.

Are you considering selling or buying a business?

Our due diligence checklists and control-environment reviews give potential buyers the assurance they need without overburdening your staff.

With sustainability and ESG under the spotlight, we can check your existing reporting to ensure that your targets are being met and provide frameworks for achieving any goals that are just out of reach.

First, we’ll hold a scoping workshop to understand your objectives.

You will provide key documents such as process maps, risk registers, and organisational charts and assign an internal liaison.

From there, we can work together to set reasonable timelines and agree on deliverables.

We would conduct a tailored risk assessment and audit plan focused on your highest-impact areas.

Our auditors then carry out fieldwork, control testing and data analytics to verify the design and effectiveness of your controls.

You will receive a clear, prioritised report of findings, complete with practical recommendations and a remediation roadmap.

As risks change and evolve, we will continue to offer ongoing support.

This may be in the form of follow-up testing, framework updates or ad-hoc advisory, but you can rest assured that we will not simply abandon you or your business.
