Internal Audit
I like the variety of the work in Internal Audit. One day you could be learning about aspects of Adult Social Care and the next you are reviewing financial processes to provide assurance on the robustness of controls in place.

What is internal audit?
Orbis Internal Audit is a collaboration of East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and Surrey County Council Internal Audit teams. The service was formed to deliver greater value for our residents and customers through the sharing of people, resources and technology.
We work in six teams:
- three sovereign-based teams - East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and Surrey County Council
- general partnership team
- counter-fraud work
- IT audits.
We take professional development incredibly seriously. We have a strong history of developing auditors from outside of the profession, offering support through buddying, mentoring and coaching, on-the-job training and access to all types of professional and personal development opportunities. Our service was shortlisted in the Best Innovation in Training & Development category at the Chartered Institute of Internal Auditors Audit and Risk Awards.
