About the Role
The Analyst, Audit, Risk & Controls supports Nscale's internal control environment across IT SOX, internal
audit, business process reviews, and enterprise risk management. Working within the Finance team and
reporting to the Director, Audit, Risk & Controls, this is a hands-on role covering control design, testing,
documentation, and ongoing monitoring across both IT and business process domains.
This is a deliberately broad role. Depending on the candidate's background, the primary focus may sit closer to
IT general controls and systems, or to business process controls and financial reporting. We expect to hire
more than one person and welcome applicants from both profiles.

• Contribute to system implementation reviews and ITGC scoping for new platforms entering the control
environment

requests and testing
Business Process Controls
• Conduct process walkthroughs and as-is documentation for key financial and operational processes
• Support the design and testing of business process controls for SOX and internal audit purposes

developments
• Assist in the design and implementation of controls arising from business initiatives or transformation
projects
Enterprise Risk Management
• Support the maintenance and monitoring of the risk register, including tracking of key risk indicators and
control owners
• Contribute to periodic risk assessments and assist in identifying emerging risks relevant to IT, financial
reporting, and operations
• Help embed risk and control awareness across the business by supporting documentation, reporting,
and stakeholder engagement
• Assist in aligning control frameworks and audit findings with the broader ERM programme
Collaboration & Reporting
• Work closely with control owners across Finance, IT, and Operations to gather evidence and support
control activities
• Communicate control requirements and findings clearly to both technical and non-technical
stakeholders

• Support ad hoc risk, compliance, and controls projects as required by the ARC leadership team
