Anyone here in business performance improvement or risk & resilience? Want to know if this is internal / IT audit masked as tech consulting like the big 4 or if these are better opportunities. Thanks in advance.

It's a mix. Some of its actual strategy and implementation work. Some of it is audit.

Understand. Thanks so much btw.

I’ve been in BPI for over 5 years and don’t do internal audit work. It’s usually finance strategy working with CFOs, recommending improvements to accounting processes, or assisting in ERP implementations.

You’ll only get picked up on an internal audit project if there’s absolutely no other BPI work available and you don’t want to be on the bench.

At a basic level, our internal audit team reviews or recommends controls, performs SOX testing, and performs inventory counts. They typically partner with the CIA or CAE to help clients be compliant.

Whereas BPI finance is less focused on controls and instead looking to get their team to the next level in terms of automation, system enhancements, improvements, etc. We have a few segments of BPI, so depending which one you’re interested in, might have more/less focus on finance.
