IT Audit Manager – Global Banking Practice (Remote) at RSM

Role Overview

RSM is seeking a highly skilled and experienced IT Audit Manager to join our Global Banking Practice. This remote position offers an exciting opportunity to support a large, multinational financial institution undergoing significant regulatory remediation. As an IT Audit Manager, you will play a crucial role in validating consent orders and remediating issues across critical IT systems that enable enterprise Financial Crimes programs. This leadership role demands deep regulatory audit expertise, strong leadership skills, and the ability to deliver high-quality, regulator-ready results in complex banking environments.

A Day in the Life

As an IT Audit Manager, your day-to-day activities will be diverse and challenging. You will manage end-to-end delivery of IT audit engagements, supporting Financial Crimes technology, including transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, customer due diligence (CDD), and KYC platforms. You will oversee the validation of consent order remediation and matters requiring attention (MRAs/MRIAs), ensuring controls are appropriately designed and operating effectively. Your responsibilities will also include leading audit planning, risk assessments, scoping, resource allocation, and execution strategy across multiple workstreams. A significant portion of your time will be spent providing leadership to audit teams, reviewing workpapers, coaching staff, and enforcing adherence to audit methodology and quality standards. You will also evaluate IT change management, information security, data governance, and application controls impacting AML systems. Interfacing directly with client executives, internal audit, compliance leadership, and regulators while representing RSM’s Global Banking Practice will be a key aspect of your role. You will translate regulatory expectations and industry frameworks (e.g., NIST, COBIT, FFIEC, ISO 27001) into practical audit approaches and deliver executive-level reporting that clearly articulates risk exposure, root causes, and prioritized remediation strategies. Proactively identifying engagement risks, removing roadblocks, and escalating issues with recommended solutions will be critical to your success. You will drive consistency, efficiency, and high performance across engagements while ensuring all deliverables meet regulatory scrutiny.
