We are seeking an experienced Internal Audit Manager with forensic investigation experience to join our global internal audit function. This role will be responsible for leading end-to-end business audit engagements across business functions, as well as conducting fraud investigations and whistleblower cases.

The ideal candidate will combine strong audit fundamentals with investigative rigour — capable of both evaluating control environments and tracing irregularities to their root cause. Deep knowledge of financial services, cryptocurrency, or fintech is highly valued.

Business Audit

  • Plan and execute end-to-end risk-based audit engagements across operational, financial, and business functions
  • Evaluate the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls, identifying control gaps, policy violations, and process inefficiencies.
  • Draft high-quality audit reports that clearly communicate findings, root causes, business impact, and actionable recommendations to management and the Board.
  • Monitor remediation progress and drive timely closure of audit issues.

Forensic Investigation

  • Lead or support fraud investigations, ethics violations, and whistleblower cases — including evidence collection, interview planning, and forensic analysis of financial transactions.
  • Conduct deep-dive analyses of suspicious activities, tracing transaction flows, identifying anomalous patterns, and documenting evidence for management action
  • Prepare investigation reports suitable for management decision-making, disciplinary proceedings, or regulatory disclosure.
  • Collaborate with Legal, HR, and Compliance on sensitive investigations, maintaining strict confidentiality and chain-of-custody protocols.

Collaboration & Advisory

  • Partner with Compliance, Risk, Finance, and business teams to strengthen the control environment proactively.
  • Provide advisory input on policy design, process improvements, and anti-fraud controls.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Law, Business Administration, or related field.
  • CPA, CIA, CFE (Certified Fraud Examiner), or equivalent certification preferred.
  • Minimum 6 years of experience in internal audit, forensic investigation, or compliance within financial services, fintech, or cryptocurrency sectors.
  • Demonstrated experience conducting fraud investigations or forensic reviews, including evidence handling, interview techniques, and report writing.
  • Strong understanding of internal control frameworks, risk management practices, and IIA auditing standards.
  • Knowledge of cryptocurrency exchange operations, blockchain, and related regulatory frameworks is a strong plus.
  • Detail-oriented with excellent analytical and critical thinking skills.
  • Effective communication skills (written and verbal) with the ability to present complex findings clearly to senior management.
  • Proficient in Chinese and English for business usage.
