Internal
Auditors
You can form
an internal audit function within your organization by hiring a
professional
with knowledge of your type of organisation
and a background in audit work, or you can opt to contract a firm
that specialises in auditing services.
Many types of
highly specialised auditors work in specific fields, such as electronic
data processing,
engineering, healthcare, banking,
and the law. In general, it would be advisable to put together
an auditing team that is specially trained in the industry your
company
belongs.
Sourcing experienced
auditors is becoming easier, as auditing is becoming more and more
an essential part of many organisations’ management
structures as more companies realise the benefits.
