Internal Audit Department (IT & Security Audit Section)
Mission
Our Internal Audit Department is dedicated to optimizing risk management and supporting the sustainable growth of our company.
Departments with Open Positions: The IT & Security Audit Section
We specialize in IT governance, a field that has become increasingly critical as our group’s business expands and technology grows more complex.
We aim to establish "truly effective control environments" that do not hinder business speed, moving beyond simple, formal compliance checks.
Key Responsibilities
J-SOX (ITGC) Assessment: Evaluating system controls to ensure the reliability of financial reporting and providing recommendations for improvement.
Security Audits: Verifying the effectiveness of security controls and overseeing remediation efforts in response to evolving business needs and the latest threat landscapes.
Career Prospects
You will gain comprehensive experience spanning from J-SOX to security auditing, establishing your market value as a professional IT auditor. By combining your technical knowledge with audit expertise, you will have the opportunity to grow into a leader who can oversee enterprise-wide risks and drive the enhancement of organizational governance.
As our business expands and technology advances, we are strengthening our IT governance and security audit capabilities. We are looking for individuals with experience in IT auditing or engineering to help us build "truly effective controls" that support, rather than hinder, business growth. If you are eager to sharpen your expertise and drive organizational governance at the forefront of our business, we look forward to hearing from you.
We will help you take your career to the next level as an IT audit professional.
By managing both J-SOX and security audits, you will gain rare, comprehensive expertise in IT control. You will also engage deeply with cutting-edge business units and engineers, gaining broad and profound insights into the diverse services and technologies within the Rakuten Ecosystem. Furthermore, as part of an organization reporting directly to the President, you will work in close proximity to management, allowing you to gain dynamic governance experience that directly impacts executive decision-making.
We practice "controls that accelerate business" rather than "defensive auditing." We are fully committed to supporting your career growth in this stimulating environment.
Upon joining us, you will first master our services and IT control foundations through J-SOX (ITGC) assessments. From there, you will expand your scope to include security audits and other areas, growing into an IT audit professional.
Your mission is to build "truly effective controls that do not hinder business" by engaging in dialogue with management and business units, leveraging your background in engineering, security, or IT auditing. We do not require prior audit experience; we welcome those who understand our services and technologies, seek personal growth, and are eager to accelerate Rakuten's development through the power of governance.
