Am thinking about switching from audit to risk advisory at a different firm. Has anyone ever done this?

No I don’t think this has ever been done.

Don’t be mean. 🫠🫠

Doable, but consider how the IT audit and IT risk advisory practices are segregated at the firm. For example, KPMG will have Technology Risk Management servicing Advisory clients, but PwC has Digital Assurance and Transparency for Audit clients. Might be easier to just work with the IT audit side at your current firm to get your feet wet.

Thank you
