What you’ll do:

We are looking for a Senior Business Auditor with advanced data analytics expertise to strengthen their Internal Audit team and support the mission of Group Internal Audit (GIA) within Nutreco. You will play a key role in delivering risk‑based audits and supporting the transition toward analytics‑driven assurance.

Your responsibilities include:

Audit & Analytics Execution.

• Apply advanced analytics techniques to extract insights from large datasets across finance, operations, procurement, supply chain, HR, and quality.
• Build repeatable analytics scripts and dashboards to support continuous monitoring and data‑driven risk assessments.
• Identify patterns, anomalies, and potential fraud indicators using structured and unstructured data.

Advisory & Stakeholder Engagement.

• Act as a trusted advisor to management by translating data insights into practical improvement recommendations.
• Facilitate discussions with stakeholders to explain findings and demonstrate how analytics supports better control design and risk mitigation.
• Support fraud or special investigations through targeted data extraction, forensic analysis, and visualization of findings for senior management.

Internal Audit Methodology & Follow‑up.

• Maintain and enhance the audit recommendations database and monitor the implementation status of agreed follow‑up actions.
• Draft clear, concise, and evidence‑based audit reports supported by data visualisation and factual insights.
• Support with the annual risk‑based audit planning process, including using analytics to identify emerging risks, hotspots, and systemic control gaps.

Continuous Improvement.

• Actively contribute to the development of GIA’s data analytics roadmap.
• Help upskill colleagues by sharing analytical tools, methodologies, and best practices.
• Promote a data‑driven mindset across the organisation and act as an ambassador for risk management and internal controls.

Who we’re looking for:

If you are a proactive and analytically minded auditor who can independently drive audits, leverage data for deeper insights, and build strong relationships with stakeholders at all levels (OpCo management, BU controllers, shared services, and corporate functions), then Nutreco is looking for you!

You’ll also bring:

• At least 5-6 years of audit experience, ideally with a blend of internal and external audit exposure.
• Strong data analytics expertise, including hands‑on ability to design and build Power BI dashboards and reports from existing datasets.
• Proven ability to analyse large datasets and translate insights into impactful audit conclusions and recommendations.
• Strong stakeholder management skills, within complex, matrixed global environments.
• Fluency in English, any additional language is an advantage.
• Willingness to travel up to 15-20%.

As part of Nutreco, you’ll be a member of the SHV family, a diverse group of companies (Nutreco, SHV Energy, Kiwa, Makro, NPM, Mammoet, One-Dyas) with global footprint. Join Nutreco and you’ll gain access to a wide network of expertise and global career paths. You’ll also benefit from the backing of one of the world’s largest

In addition, you’ll receive:

• A competitive salary package;
