Internal Audit Consultant

tendersglobal.net

The Green Climate Fund (GCF)—a critical element of the historic Paris Agreement—is the world’s largest climate fund mandated to support low-emission, climate-resilient development pathways. As an operating entity of the financial mechanism of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), GCF contributes to the goal of keeping an average global temperature rise well below two degrees Celsius.

The Office of the Internal Auditor (OIA or Office) was established under Board Decision B.BM-2015/06 to provide internal oversight services to the Green Climate Fund. In that decision, the Board adopted the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) framework as the Fund’s internal control framework and the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) standards as the internal audit standards for the Fund. 

The mandate of the Office is to assist the Executive Director and GCF Board in ensuring whether the Fund’s risk management, controls and governance processes provide reasonable assurance of the effective and economic use of resources; accuracy and reliability of the Fund’s financial and operational information; safeguarding of Fund assets; compliance with Fund decisions, policies, and guidelines; and achievement of the Fund’s programmes, plans and business objectives. The Head of the Office of the Internal Auditor (HOIA) reports directly to the Executive Director and advises the ED and the Board on significant deficiencies or issues identified during his audit assignments and recommends improvements. 

The Office of the Internal Auditor seeks to engage the Internal Audit Consultant (S2P) to assist its team to carry out an audit of Organizational Culture and related tasks, duties, and responsibilities to deliver the set deliverables and provide support to OIA.

OIA plans to conduct this audit of Organizational Culture as a part of OIA’s approved work plan for 2024-2027. The objective of this engagement is to assess whether GCF has adequate and effective arrangements in place in supporting the organization’s culture as a foundational element of the overall governance of GCF. 

With the reporting line to HOIA, the Internal Audit Consultant will work directly with him and OIA team in performing the audit of the Organizational Culture and represent OIA throughout the audit engagement as a member of the OIA Team. The Internal Audit Consultant will mainly work remotely and jointly with the OIA team based in the GCF Headquarters in Songdo, Republic of Korea, and may be expected to travel to the GCF Headquarters for two to four weeks during the fieldwork phase. The Internal Audit Consultant would be expected to start the engagement in June 2024.
