What you'll do

· Identify potential audit issues during engagements and communicate observations clearly to the team lead or senior.

· Perform internal control walkthroughs and assist in documenting Internal Control memorandums, developing an understanding of key business processes and control environments. With progression, begin to evaluate control design and implementation and identify areas of risk.

· Execute assigned compliance testing procedures (e.g., eligibility, reporting, and other compliance areas). Build and apply knowledge of major compliance requirements and understand how testing impacts reporting under GAAP, GAAS, and Uniform Guidance.

· Perform beginning balance testing procedures, ensuring work is accurately documented and supported. Identify discrepancies, investigate variances as experience grows, and communicate findings and questions to the engagement team.

· Prepare draft financial statements, footnotes, and other required audit reports for review, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and adherence to firm standards and applicable reporting frameworks. With experience, complete these with increased independence and fewer revisions.

· Utilize firm audit software and standardized workpapers to document procedures performed, ensuring work is organized, accurate, and review ready.

· Apply audit methodologies, including risk assessment, sampling, and substantive testing, with increasing independence and sound professional judgment.

· Collaborate effectively with engagement team members and begin taking ownership of discrete sections of the audit. Develop professional communication skills, including interacting with clients to request information and clarify inquiries.

· Gain exposure to Single Audit engagements; prior experience is preferred, with the expectation of developing proficiency in government and compliance-related auditing.

· Familiarity with Single Audit (Yellow Book) engagement is a plus.
