I mean it’s a much better field than financial audit if that’s what you’re thinking
It is not a narrow path because it opens up a lot of job possibilities. Former IT auditors who worked for me are CIOs, CISOs, CAEs and more.
Get on engagements where you can help the engineers build the financial systems and applications, you have the knowledge. I felt the same and not sure how I ended on IT engagements but the money isn’t in accounting . Accounting never pays well.
I'm sure the core assurance practice would easily welcome you given your background. Would be a pretty easy pivot
I would try to move to financial audit or IT consulting. A career of testing IT SOX controls is a very narrow path.
IT consulting is so different to IT audit though despite the similar name, would need to completely restart career
There are far better roles in the firm to prepare you for these types of positions than testing ITGC’s. We have an Internal Audit practice that will prepare you to be a CAE. A cyber practice that will prepare you to be a CISO. An entire consulting practice that will prepare you be a CIO.
I was responding to the comment that there were not good career paths starting in IT audit. Some people use this as a starting point to go into other practices.
I found Internal Audit at a good financial institution to be more interesting and meaningful than SOX IT Audit. You could try moving to IA and then 1st/2nd like from there .
FS sounds like the perfect match for you.
Mates in Tax and Audit complain all the time, and have the personality of a check shirt.
Meanwhile in IT/Cyber, every engagement has just enough new things to make it feel exciting without ever getting intimidating.
