Controlling
and financial audit

There is a growing demand for specialists with expertise in finance, controlling and modern technologies. This is confirmed by data from a PwC report, which shows that 89% of CFOs plan to achieve a high level of automation of key financial processes. 81% of them use cloud solutions, which translates into demand for skilled workers in this area. The Global Internal Audit Standards, effective from 2025 and developed by the Institute of Internal Auditors, are contributing to an increase in the number of job offers for specialists in the field of internal audit, both in the public and private sectors, particularly in the area of updating audit procedures and adapting risk management systems to new requirements.
