For instance, the first batch of 50 officers across the public sector finance community to be professionally certified in sustainability reporting and sustainability assurance within the next six months; and will continue to grow this talent pool to support the Singapore Green Plan 2030.

The MOU was signed by ISCA President, Mr. Teo Ser Luck, and AGD Accountant-General and Chief of Government Finance, Mr. Ow F**k Chuen, and witnessed by ISCA CEO, Ms. Fann Kor, and AGD Deputy Accountant-General and Deputy Chief of Government Finance, Ms. Esther Wee.

Check out this exciting Internal Audit role in the Public Sector that supports the smooth running of operations and Public Service officers in Overseas Missions. Internal auditors in the Accountant-General’s Department (AGD) work closely with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to provide objective assessments of an Overseas Mission's risks and opportunities.

Did you know that ‘Overseas Missions’ comprise embassies, high commissions, consulates, and other international organisations. They play a vital role in representing Singapore’s interests in foreign nations and perform functions related to political representation, economic promotion, and cultural diplomacy!

Auditing these missions remain exciting as the operating context of each Mission is constantly evolving. In performing the audit, internal auditors learn more about the existing and emerging risks faced, to design optimal audit steps to address control weaknesses, identify compliance issues, strengthen governance and support risk identification and management.

Internal auditors rely on both information gleaned in Singapore, as well as visits to the various countries to perform their audits. This dual privilege allows them to holistically assess Missions’ compliance to Singapore’s requirements, and that of the host country. Plus, auditors get to interact with the local staff and gain insights into their customs and way of life, which can be a truly enriching experience. Not to mention, exploring local cuisine is a perk that should not be missed!

Ready for a public sector job that offers exciting travel opportunities? AGD is currently seeking internal auditors who are passionate about international travel, cultural exchange, and contributing to Singapore's Public Service. Don't miss out on this amazing opportunity to take your career to new heights. Apply now to join the AGD family and embark on a journey that will change your life.
