Full job description

**Posting Deadline: Please submit your application by 11:59 PM PST, April 24th, 2026 **

Position Type: Permanent

Together, Let’s Do Great Things!

We're a financial services co-operative with an expansive reach on Vancouver Island, the Gulf and Discovery islands and North Central BC. Joining us is your chance to work, and do good, locally. We are seeking a VP, Internal Audit to provide independent, objective assurance and strategic insight that strengthens governance, risk management, and internal controls across Coastal Community.

If you bring deep internal audit expertise, strong executive judgment, and a passion for advancing effective governance in a cooperative financial services environment, we would love to hear from you.

This opportunity offers the ability to work remotely from anywhere in British Columbia.

What’s the role?

With functional reporting to the Audit & Finance Committee of the Board of Directors and administrative reporting to the Chief Financial Officer, the VP, Internal Audit provides strategic leadership of the third line of defense. You will support the Board in fulfilling its governance responsibilities by delivering independent assurance and advisory services that enhance and protect organizational value.

In this role, you will lead the development and execution of risk‑based internal audit plans, assess the effectiveness of operational management, risk management, and compliance practices, and provide independent insight on governance, controls, and emerging risks — without assuming management responsibility or ownership of controls or risk decisions.

Your duties will include:

Providing strategic leadership and oversight of the Internal Audit function, aligned with Board and enterprise priorities.
Developing and maintaining the Internal Audit Charter, Audit Universe, and multi‑year, risk‑based Internal Audit Plans in consultation with executive leadership and the Audit & Finance Committee.
Leading execution of enterprise‑wide internal audits and ensuring adherence to Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) Global Standards and Principles.
Providing independent, high‑quality reporting to the Audit & Finance Committee and Board on audit outcomes, key risks, and control effectiveness.
Overseeing co‑sourced and third‑party audit partners to ensure quality, independence, and alignment with approved audit plans.
Identifying enterprise‑level control weaknesses and promoting sustainable, value‑added corrective actions.
Monitoring emerging risks, regulatory developments, and industry best practices impacting the credit union.
Developing, managing, and monitoring the Internal Audit budget and reporting on performance and variances.
Tracking and reporting audit metrics and KPIs to the Board on a quarterly basis.
Representing Internal Audit on enterprise initiatives and committees in an advisory, non‑operational capacity.

What are we looking for?

A Bachelor’s degree is required; a Master’s degree or equivalent education is strongly preferred.
A professional designation such as CPA, CIA, or CISA is required.
A minimum of 10 years of progressive experience in financial services or a related regulated environment.
At least 6 years in a senior leadership or executive role, with demonstrated accountability to Boards or Board Committees.
Advanced understanding of credit union operations, governance, and cooperative principles.
Demonstrated success leading complex organizations, developing high‑performing teams, and providing independent executive‑level insight.
Deep expertise in internal audit, risk management, governance, and regulatory expectations within financial services.

Who are we?

Established in 1946, Coastal Community Credit Union puts people's needs first and invests in communities across Vancouver Island, the Discovery and Gulf Islands, and in North Central BC. We’re proud of the legacy we’ve built and the things that make us who we are:

We’re 100% member-owned, with all decisions made locally—right here in BC.
We’re a growing organization with $5.6 billion in assets under management.
Coastal Community helps improve the financial health of over 110,000 members as well as insurance and wealth clients through our 32 branches, 19 insurance offices, our business centres, plus our wide range of online and digital services.
We believe in making meaningful contributions to the communities we call home through grants, education awards, sponsorships, and fundraising.

At Coastal Community we are dedicated to serving our local community by prioritizing diversity, equality, inclusion, and supporting a sense of belonging for all. We value every individual’s unique experience and perspective. As a result, we empower individuals to achieve their financial goals, enrich lives, and build healthier communities.

Embarking on a journey with Coastal Community means joining an exceptional team, engaging in meaningful work, and enjoying fulfilling experiences along the way. We take pride in offering a comprehensive total rewards package and a workplace culture that’s second to none. This includes a commitment to work/life balance, a substantial extended benefits package, an impressive 11.75% employer-paid RRSP contribution, investments in your education and training, banking perks, and so much more! Join us and be part of a community that values your growth and success!

Career Band Range (Annual Salary): $153,407.00 to $193,500.00

The posted salary range reflects our broad career band and serves as a general guideline. Final compensation will be based on skills, experience, and the scope of the role.
