About this role

This is a fantastic opportunity to join our UK based Global Payments Network Audit team as a Senior Manager.

Capital One is seeking an Audit Senior Manager who will assist in the development and execution of the audit plans for assurance coverage related to the newly acquired Global Payment Network, and will work closely with members of the technology, compliance, and analytics audit teams who support key audit projects.

• Significant experience and robust skills in assessing business risks and the ability to identify, design, and execute risk-based testing
