About PSRS/PEERS

PSRS/PEERS serves Missouri’s public education community by providing secure, reliable retirement benefits to those who dedicate their careers to supporting students. As one of the largest public pension systems in the state, we take pride in operating with integrity, stability, and long‑term stewardship — ensuring the financial well‑being of more than 300,000 active, inactive, and retired members.

We operate with a strong sense of mission and purpose. Every decision, control, and improvement we make ultimately supports educators and school staff who rely on us for their future financial security. Professionalism, accountability, and collaboration ground everything we do.

Our team is composed of mission‑driven professionals dedicated to doing things the right way. We offer a respectful, supportive work environment that empowers employees to contribute meaningfully, share ideas, and grow in their careers. Joining PSRS/PEERS means becoming part of an organization guided by integrity, committed to continuous improvement, and focused on delivering exceptional service that positively impacts the lives of Missouri’s public education employees.

About the Role

We’re seeking a highly skilled, forward‑thinking Director of Internal Audit to lead our Internal Audit function with independence, integrity, and strategic insight. In this role, you will ensure strong internal controls, regulatory compliance, and process improvements across the organization. You’ll collaborate across departments, provide trusted guidance to leadership, and direct a small but talented Internal Audit team.

Your responsibilities will include planning and executing compliance, financial, IT, and operational audits; developing audit programs; evaluating risks and internal controls; and delivering clear, actionable recommendations. You will support management and the Board through consulting engagements, participate in key committees, and oversee all aspects of audit operations—from staffing and workflow management to the creation of the Annual Audit Plan and Internal Audit Annual Report.

In addition, you will guide the continuous improvement of audit methodologies, leverage data analysis to identify trends and exceptions, and ensure adherence to professional auditing standards. This role offers the opportunity to strengthen organizational governance, contribute to strategic decision‑making, and enhance enterprise‑wide risk management.

If you’re inspired by purposeful work, enjoy continuous improvement, and excel in a mission‑driven environment, this position offers an impactful and highly visible leadership opportunity.

What You Bring

Knowledge & Skills

Deep expertise in internal auditing principles, management practices, and quality control.
Strong knowledge of GAAP, GASB, and Government Auditing Standards.
Understanding of IT concepts and audit tools.
Exceptional data analysis, project management, and problem‑solving skills.
Strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication abilities.

Education & Experience

Bachelor’s degree in accounting, business, or a related field (master’s preferred).
CPA or CIA required.
Seven years of auditing experience, including two years of supervisory or project‑management experience.

Other Requirements

Valid Missouri driver’s license.
Ability to work in an office environment with periods of concentrated review and occasional lifting or file retrieval.

Why Join Us?

You will play a key role in strengthening governance, enhancing organizational resilience, and contributing to strategic decision‑making. This position provides independence, visibility, and the opportunity to make a lasting impact on an organization that serves those who serve Missouri’s students.

Why You’ll Love Working At PSRS/PEERS

At PSRS/PEERS, we offer a comprehensive and competitive benefits package designed to support your well‑being, financial security, and work‑life balance. Employees enjoy robust medical, dental, and vision coverage; membership in a defined benefit pension plan that provides lifetime retirement benefits with just five years of vesting; generous paid time off; paid parental leave; and professional development support including training, certifications, and continuing education. We also provide employer‑funded life and disability insurance along with flexible scheduling options that help you balance personal and professional priorities.

PSRS/PEERS fosters a supportive, collaborative environment built on trust, integrity, and shared mission. Team members appreciate the respectful atmosphere where people genuinely care about each other and embrace transparency and accountability. We value stability, long‑term career growth, innovation, and continuous improvement. Our work directly supports Missouri’s educators, giving employees a strong sense of purpose and pride each day.
