Internal Financial Audit Assistance

I need a chartered, practising accountant to carry out an internal audit focused exclusively on our financial reporting. Your brief is to examine current statements, supporting schedules and the underlying bookkeeping data, then highlight any misstatements, control weaknesses or process gaps that could affect accuracy or timeliness.

Scope
• Internal audit only, no statutory external sign-off required.
• Concentrate on financial reporting; operational or regulatory areas can remain out of scope for now, though feel free to flag any obvious issues you notice in passing.

Deliverables
1. Audit plan outlining the sections you will test and the sampling method.
2. Working papers (spreadsheet or audit software export) showing test results.
3. A concise report for management that summarises findings, grades risks, and recommends corrective actions.

I work with standard accounting platforms—QuickBooks Online for day-to-day bookkeeping and Excel for schedules—so familiarity with these, plus GAAP/IFRS rules, is essential. Remote access to the files can be arranged immediately; if you prefer on-site verification of any documents, let me know and I will schedule it.

Please specify your estimated turnaround time and describe any similar internal audits you have completed.
