Overview
At Mastercard, Internal Audit provides independent, objective assurance and advisory activities designed to add value and improve our operations and control environment. Internal Audit helps Mastercard accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the design and operating effectiveness of governance, risk management, and internal controls.

The Regions & Markets team within Internal Audit provides third-line evaluation of controls for Mastercard's in-market operations ensuring alignment and compliance with local, regional and global frameworks, standards, and directives. Internal Audit also serves as a point of contact for regulators interested in third-line activities.

The Role
