What I always loved about working in Internal Audit is that despite the quite standardized audit process, every audit is different. There are different countries, cultures, systems, processes, business models, functions and much more.

FROM SCRATCH

A part of allowing the entrepreneurial spirit of PUMA with its global markets requires innovative use of technology and new applications. While these help PUMA maintain its competitive edge, they can present risks that should be taken into consideration. Therefore, Philip's primary responsibility is to develop the IT audit strategy from scratch of how to look at these processes, determine where they may be a risk or opportunity and then present a recommendation of how to make improvements that make sense to our business.
