Elaine O'Brien

Head of Audit- Strategic Programmes

 

What does a day in Bank of Ireland look like?

A normal day for me includes lots of meetings and interactions with colleagues internally and externally planning and executing audits.

What's the best thing about your job?

The best thing about my role is the opportunity to meet so many people across all divisions of the Bank - the diversity of skills and serious expertise all around makes for a great learning environment.

What challenges you in your job? 

The more challenging aspects are trying to learn as quickly as I can, as each audit brings new content to familiarise with.

What gets you up in the morning?

Each day in Audit is different! This keeps the role interesting, which is really important for me.
