Department Summary
The Office of Internal Audit (OIA) independently assesses and enhances the University of Oregon (UO) risk management, control, and governance practices. It ensures that operations are conducted efficiently, effectively, and in line with policies and regulations, while identifying improvement opportunities and mitigating risks to support the University’s strategic goals. OIA is responsible for developing and implementing a flexible annual audit plan that prioritizes areas of highest risk and adapts to the UO’s risk landscape.
Position Summary
Join our dynamic team in the OIA, where we are committed to enhancing educational excellence through effective resource management and transparent practices. We value collaboration and innovation. As we build out our team, we’re looking for an IT Auditor II who shares our passion for supporting student success and making a meaningful impact.
As the IT Auditor II, you will lead audits, investigations, and consulting engagements for UO in accordance with policies, procedures, and accepted auditing standards. While this position will focus primarily in complex information technology areas, non-IT audits may be assigned as deemed necessary by the Audit Manager and Chief Auditor. Duties include effectively participating in all phases of assigned engagements, including planning, fieldwork, review, and reporting. Duties may also include integrated work with audits, investigations, and consulting engagements where IT expertise is necessary.
In this role, you will carry out duties with moderate independence and with minor supervision, and report directly to the Audit Manager. You will have a professional working relationship with the Information Services units to help identify, audit, and collaborate on improvements that drive an overall reduced IT risk footprint for the university.
As the IT Auditor II, you will professionally represent the OIA on appropriate university committees and work groups, actively attending with the goal of identifying risks and recommending controls. You will inform the Audit Manager and Chief Auditor of identified risks and concerns and propose solutions to manage the identified risks and controls.
The successful IT Auditor II is ethical and objective, demonstrates confidentiality, communicates professionally, and demonstrates professional curiosity by obtaining relevant continuous education.
UO is committed to creating a more inclusive and diverse institution and seeks candidates with demonstrated potential to contribute positively to its diverse community.
