Overview:<\/p>\n
\tThe Internal Audit Field Officer will play a critical day-to-day role in ensuring that GiveDirectly is able to deliver cash transfers to recipients safely. The Field Officer will be part of the team that is responsible for preventing, detecting, mitigating, and investigating field-based risks for GiveDirectly.
\n\tThe role will reward high-quality judgment on operational questions and challenges, a strong work ethic, effective communication skills, attention to detail, a strong sense of independence, and a strong commitment to GiveDirectly\u2019s mission and model. In essence, the Internal Audit Field Officer will be expected to audit the work of the enrolment team, whose core responsibility is surveying households and enrolling them in our programs.
\n\tDue to the sensitive nature of the work done by the internal audit team, we require all in-country internal audit staff to remain firewalled from the rest of the staff. This means operating discretely and independently, with interactions strictly limited to just the colleagues within the same team. The role holder will be expected to carry out day-to-day audit tasks with an absolute level of discretion, impartiality, neutrality, and independence.
