We’re looking for a Senior Internal Control Specialist FTC

At Brit, we believe that the uncertainty of the future should never stand in the way of progress. That’s why we exist. To help people and businesses face the future and thrive. We are change‑makers enabled by a global workforce who collaborate to deliver a risk service. A team empowered to help our customers not only to survive the risks they face, but to stay on the front foot and keep moving forward.

We believe the uncertainty of tomorrow isn’t something to fear but to seize; that it’s full of potential. Not only for our customers but our employees too.

We are looking for a dedicated professional to support our Senior SOX & Internal Control Manager in ensuring that Brit complies with all aspects of SOX requirements on an annual basis.

In this role, you'll assist with managing the annual SOX programme—from planning and scoping to maintaining key documentation, performing design effectiveness testing, remediating deficiencies, and preparing essential reports.

You'll work closely with the Change Assurance team to update SOX processes and documentation while also contributing to the wider control framework through system development, control enhancements, and efficiency initiatives.

In your role, you'll develop and maintain a strong control environment by ensuring all process and control documentation is current, and you'll support management in identifying and managing key risks.

You'll manage assigned components of the annual SOX testing in line with our Group methodology to provide assurance over financial reporting and support the planning activities necessary for a successful SOX programme.

You'll be responsible for monitoring control performance using our Internal Control tool, updating it as organisational changes occur, and producing insightful reports for both Executive and non‑Executive management.

Additionally, you'll oversee the remediation process for any control gaps or deficiencies, work to rationalise overlapping controls, and assist with integrating new entities, business classes, products, or processes into our control environment.

You'll also ensure that even small or routine changes are properly assessed, and their impact reflected in our SOX control framework. On an ad‑hoc basis, you'll address query resolutions, participate in deep dives and special reviews, liaise with internal and external auditors, and support the development of junior team members.

We’ve got a truly diverse, genuinely inclusive work environment. We comfortably and confidently bring our whole selves to work, because we know we’ll be respected, valued and accepted whoever we are. Our Employee Resource groups are safe spaces for people to share their experiences, aspirations and suggestions about how we do things.

We are located in the Leadenhall Building on Leadenhall Street (EC3V 4AB
) and are situated on floors 17, 18, and 39. All of our floors are accessible by lift, and there are building staff on hand to point you in the right direction.
