  • Strategic Advisory: Provide definitive counsel to Executive Management regarding emerging risks, strategic initiatives, capital investments, and forensic trends while championing proactive transparency.
  • Enterprise Risk Management (ERM): Design and execute the group-wide ERM framework to align operational outputs with institutional risk appetite; maintain the comprehensive Group Risk Register and facilitate continuous risk assessments across individual business units.
  • Risk Mitigation and Controls: Establish advanced risk-treatment protocols to reinforce the control environment across project execution, procurement, production, and supply chains in strict compliance with IIA Standards.
  • Compliance and Quality Oversight: Monitor, interpret, and manage regulatory and statutory shifts affecting capital-intensive operations; manage the institutional Quality Assurance Improvement Program (QAIP) to embed compliance frameworks across the value chain.
  • Reporting and Stakeholder Engagement: Synthesize complex data into high-level analytical reports for the Risk Committee and Board; collaborate directly with Finance, SHEQ, and Compliance teams to maintain a unified approach to organizational risk.

Requirements

  • Must be a registered Chartered Accountant, CA(SA).
  • 10 to 15 years of robust experience in internal audit, enterprise risk management, or governance within an EPC, manufacturing, logistics, or related heavy industry environment.
  • Proven, demonstrable track record in Forensic Auditing and specialized forensic investigations.
  • Deep practical knowledge of ERM frameworks (such as ISO 31000, COSO) alongside strong operational and financial control structures.
  • Impeccable ethical standards, exceptional stakeholder diplomacy, and the capacity to deliver absolute independence of thought under pressure.

Required Software Skills

  • Advanced MS Office Suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint).
  • CaseWare / CaseView or equivalent enterprise auditing software.
  • Familiarity with cloud-based ERP environments (e.g., SAP, Syspro, Xero) and data analytics toolsets.

Benefits

  • Location: Cape Winelands, Western Cape
  • Employment Type: Permanent
  • Fantastic bonus structure connected to this role
  • Full-time, in-office offering slight flexibility around core start and finish times.
  • Travel (fully compensated) required to various sites in South Africa.
