The Senior Internal Auditor sits within the Risk & Assurance team, which supports the National Church Institutions (NCIs) of the Church of England. The NCIs bring together a wide range of services and organisations that help enable the Church's mission across the country. This role plays an important part in providing independent assurance that risks are appropriately managed and key controls are operating effectively.
Reporting to the Deputy Director of Assurance, the Senior Internal Auditor will deliver risk-based assurance and advisory reviews across the National Church Institutions. The role involves working with colleagues at all levels of the organisation to evaluate governance, risk management and internal control arrangements and identify opportunities for improvement.
The postholder will deliver Internal Audit (IA) engagements from planning through to reporting, producing clear, evidence-based findings and practical recommendations. The role will also contribute to the development of the annual IA plan, continuous improvement of IA methodologies, and the promotion of effective risk management practices across the NCIs.
This role offers an excellent opportunity for an experienced auditor to broaden their exposure across governance, finance, operations, safeguarding, and strategic risk, while contributing to the mission and work of the Church of England.
You will be responsible for leading IA work from start to finish. This includes planning audits based on risk, working with teams across the organisation to understand how services operate, and reporting clear, balanced findings to senior management and Audit and Risk Committees. The role requires strong judgement, the ability to influence constructively, and confidence in working with senior stakeholders.

Identify control weaknesses, governance issues and emerging risks, assessing their impact and significance.
Prepare clear, concise and evidence-based audit reports containing practical and proportionate recommendations.
Agree IA findings and management actions with stakeholders and monitor progress against agreed actions where required.
Build productive relationships with colleagues, senior managers and other stakeholders across the NCIs.
Contribute to the development of the IA plan through risk assessment activities and identification of emerging risks.
Support reporting to senior management and the Audit and Risk Committees.
Contribute to the continuous improvement of IA processes, methodologies and use of IA technology.
Maintain professional knowledge and comply with applicable professional standards and ethical requirements.
Alongside assurance work, you will also provide timely advice on internal controls and risk management, helping teams strengthen how risks are identified, assessed and managed across the organisation.
This role would suit an experienced IA professional who is confident delivering complex IA assignments, engaging with senior stakeholders and providing clear, balanced assurance and advice. You will possess strong analytical skills, sound professional judgement and the ability to explain risk and control issues in a constructive and practical manner.
To be successful in this role, you will be able to demonstrate the following key requirements:
A recognised professional qualification in IA or accountancy (for example CMIIA, CIA, ACA, ACCA, AAT or equivalent)
Demonstrable experience delivering risk‑based IA engagements, from planning through to reporting
Strong understanding of governance, risk management and internal control frameworks and their practical application.
Experience assessing the design and effectiveness of controls and identifying opportunities for improvement.
Strong stakeholder engagement skills and experience working with managers and senior leaders.
Excellent written communication skills, including the production of clear, concise and evidence-based audit reports.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including the ability to interpret information and draw objective conclusions.
Ability to manage multiple assignments and meet agreed deadlines and quality standards.
High standards of professional integrity, objectivity and discretion.
You do not need prior knowledge of the Church of England to apply. An interest in working within a values‑led organisation, and a commitment to collaboration, integrity and continuous improvement, will be important for success in the role.

- Employee relations advice and case management, with support to continue developing your knowledge and confidence

- Can demonstrate experience of contributing to or delivering engagement, wellbeing, inclusion, culture or employee experience initiatives.
- Has a sound understanding of HR practice and employment law, with the willingness and ability to develop further practical experience in employee relations and case management.

- Can organise and deliver activity, manage multiple priorities and follow through from idea to implementation.

Likewise, candidates with a stronger ER background should be able to demonstrate a genuine interest in engagement, wellbeing and inclusion work.
We will assess candidates across both employee relations and engagement to reflect the balanced nature of the role. We are interested in your transferable experience, your understanding of good people practice and employment law, and your willingness to learn.

health through better experiences, by putting play at the heart of every child’s healthcare.
Reporting to the Communications & Brand Manager, the Digital Content Creator will create
engaging, high-quality digital content that brings Starlight's work to life across social media,
the website and other digital channels.
The role will work closely with colleagues across the organisation to capture and tell stories
that demonstrate the impact of Starlight's work, amplify the voices of children, young
people and families, and support fundraising, campaigns, partnerships and organisational
communications.
The postholder will be responsible for planning, creating and publishing digital content
across multiple platforms, helping to build engagement with Starlight's audiences while
ensuring all content reflects the organisation's brand, values and strategic priorities.

supporting statement which demonstrates how your experience matches the person
specification and highlights your most relevant, recent experience for this role.

About the role:
At the Women’s Recovery Service, you’ll be part of a dedicated accommodation service supporting women who have experienced homelessness, VAWG, poor health, substance use, and exclusion from essential services.
This is more than a job in accommodation services: it is an opportunity to stand alongside women as they reclaim their strength, build new futures and shape their own recovery.
As our Specialist Multiple Disadvantage Worker you will bring expertise, creativity and determination to help women break down barriers and take steps forward with confidence. Every day is different – from providing one to one support and leading group sessions, to working with health, housing and VAWG partners to open up new opportunities. You will be a voice of encouragement and advocacy, ensuring women get the services and respect they deserve, and you will see the impact of your work in the real changes women make in their lives.
Joining Single Homeless Project means being part of an organisation that believes in your growth as much as the growth of our clients. You will be supported through training, reflective practice and career progression, giving you the chance to deepen your expertise and take your career in exciting directions. This role is your chance to make a lasting difference not only to the women you support but to how SHP continues to lead the way in ending homelessness for women across London.
*For genuine occupational requirement reasons, we are seeking female applicants only for this post (exemption under the Equality Act 2010; Schedule 9 Part 1).
About you:
- Experience of supporting people facing homelessness and multiple disadvantage such as domestic abuse, substance use, and poor mental or physical health.
- Knowledge of women’s services and the impact of violence against women and girls (VAWG).
- Understanding of how statutory and community services operate, including health, social care, housing and criminal justice.
- Ability to engage and build trust with people who may be reluctant to accept support.
- Ability to manage a caseload effectively and balance competing priorities.
About us:
Single Homeless Project is a London-wide charity. Our vision is of a society where everyone has a place to call home and the chance to live a fulfilling life.
We help single Londoners by preventing homelessness, providing support and accommodation, promoting wellbeing, enhancing opportunity, and being a voice for change. From supporting people in crisis to helping people take the final steps towards independence and employment, we make a difference to 12,000 lives every year across all 32 boroughs.
We offer you more than a job; we offer you a chance to be part of a compassionate, driven team that's committed to making a real difference in people's lives. You'll have the opportunity to lead, co-create, and inspire change while enjoying a collaborative, growth-oriented environment.
Join us in creating a brighter, more hopeful future for individuals in need.
