We are seeking a highly specialized and experienced Senior IT & Cloud Assurance Auditor (Regional/Global Focus) to join a newly established, dynamic regional team. This is a pioneer role, requiring a self-starter with a "roll up the sleeves" mentality and deep technical expertise across enterprise systems (SAP HANA), cloud environments (iCloud/SaaS), and core Cybersecurity.
The ideal candidate will move beyond traditional compliance checks to act as a hands-on Subject Matter Expert (SME), setting up, executing, and defining the future audit protocols for these high-risk, high-value systems across the region. We are building a culture based on technical mastery and direct assurance, rather than rigid hierarchy.
