Good Day.

My name is Magdalene. I'm excited to have my new certification in hand, but I'm at the beginning stages of planning my move from Assistant Financial Controller into ISO auditing. I'm looking for advice on how to best leverage my background to land an Associate or Lead Auditor role.

In brief, I am an accounting and audit professional with over 10 years of experience in financial reporting, external audit, internal controls, and regulatory compliance across Malaysia and Singapore. I have experience in control testing, SOP implementation, statutory reporting, taxation, and audit coordination.

Thank you.

Hi Magdalene,

Welcome, and congratulations on your certification! You actually have a really strong foundation for auditing already, especially with your background in controls, compliance, SOPs, and audit coordination. A lot of those skills transfer directly into management systems auditing, particularly around process thinking, evidence gathering, risk, and communication.

I'd encourage you to stay active in the community, there are quite a few members here who have transitioned from adjacent fields into auditing and can share what helped them break in.

Excited to see where the journey takes you!

Good Day.

I was wondering how a person who is a certified ISO auditor connects with organizations that need to be registered.   I don't see a bulletin board where opportunities are posted.  Any thoughts?
