We are happy to share that we have recurrent job opportunities for passionate Internal Auditors, as we have been permanently recruiting talents for our central team based in our Global Headquarters in Luxembourg!

On a regular basis, we are looking for Internal Auditor professionists who will perform business process, compliance and strategic reviews worldwide. 
In this role, you will take part in a variety of projects across all functions/divisions (manufacturing, operations, supply chain, procurement, sales, etc.) and geographies, in line with the Group Internal Audit methodology and the IIA standards. 
You will become part of our international, multicultural and dynamic Global Internal Audit team, office-based in our Luxembourg HQs and you will report to the Group Audit Manager. 

Main Responsibilities:

As an Internal Auditor in Ferrero, you will deliver risk-based reviews, assessing the effectiveness of the organization’s governance, risk management and Internal Control system and identifying any weaknesses that could prevent the achievement of company’s objectives. 
You will provide continuous support to the team in identifying the key risks to determine the scope of each review and in the preparation of the Audit Planning document, taking part to special projects, when required.
You will have to guarantee appropriate and clearly documented audit evidence, supporting the audit findings, offering business-focused recommendations to improve internal controls, procedures, systems and business practices. You will have the chance to demonstrate the ability to discuss those findings and liaise with a diverse group of stakeholders across the organization, adopting a customer-focused approach, while ensuring independence and objectivity is maintained.
Last but not least, you will perform follow up reviews to ensure the agreed corrective actions have been implemented, at the same time building and maintaining knowledge of the business.

Your strong knowledge of multinational Manufacturing/Consumer Products companies and wide visibility on all functions will be very valuable for us. 
You will contribute to the success of the team thanks to your good understanding of business processes, risk management, and audit testing methodology, problem-solving and project management skills.
You carry out internal audit reviews with integrity and accuracy and possess the critical thinking, resilience, and technical competencies to identify and assess risks.

You are an excellent written and oral communicator, enthusiastic about working both individually and as part of a Team, supporting a continuous improvement culture, and adapt in an ever-changing environment.
You are willing to travel internationally 20-40% of your time.

How to be successful in the role and at Ferrero:

Consumers, quality and care are at the heart of everything we do. So, to be successful at Ferrero, you’ll need to be just as consumer and product centric as we are - dedicated to crafting brilliant results for consumers around the world. 

Strong analytical mind, attention to details on one hand, and ability to cooperate with employees at all levels and great organisational skills on the other, would be key to success.  Employee contribution and engagement at Ferrero is based on the individual, team and organisation dimension, so you should have the ability to work independently, as a part of the team and build good relations with stakeholders at all levels.  Being flexible and dealing with a dynamic working environment as well as the ability to embed new knowledge and skills in existing competencies will definitely help you to become high performer here.
