It is responsible for: (a) the internal audit activities of the IS, (b) the support to the IS risk management process; and (c) the support and enhancement of the IS ethics framework and (d) fraud investigation.IOS’s audit activities include assurance as well as consulting engagements. They cover all NATO IS activities and programmes. IOS is also responsible to prevent detect, and respond to fraudulent activities within the IS.IOS is responsible for the IS risk management process. This includes developing a risk management policy, promoting, enabling and monitoring a systematic and disciplined approach to risk management. It supports the IS Divisions and Independent Offices in the management of their risks and is in charge of the establishment of IS key risk register.The Ethics function strengthens and fosters the culture of ethics, integrity and accountability in NATO IS. It coordinates the design and implementation of a NATO IS whistleblowing policy and oversees the informal approach to fighting grievance and unwanted behaviours, notably in relation to harassment, bullying and discrimination.Fraud investigations consist in determining the veracity of allegations of misconducts and other irregularities affecting NATO IS and advising on appropriate detective measures and mitigation actions.How the daily work will look like?The Internal Oversight Service is an independent and dynamic independent office, which is involved, daily in a wide range of activities. It consists of several staff from different nationalities and different fields of expertise from risk management to fraud investigation, audits and ethics. The intern will get the opportunity to work closely with every one of them and learn from their expertise and experience gathered within and outside the organization.In general, throughout the course of the internship, the intern will be assigned very diverse projects, depending on the needs of the office and on your personal field of interest for the various areas, we cover. IOS being a relatively small office, the intern will be given the opportunity to work very quickly on operational projects and activities. More specifically, next to doing relevant research related to past, pending and upcoming issues, they may assist in audit work from planning to fieldwork and reporting, contribute to risk management trainings or to specific risks assessments, or work on communication and collaborate with auditors, risk managers or fraud officers from other NATO entities.Through the oversight activities, they will get the opportunity to get a deep understanding of how NATO IS works as an international organization.What do we offer?
