Auditor 4, Auditor General - Northeast Region

DESCRIPTION OF WORK

The DAG is looking to fill one Auditor 4 position within the Bureau of Fire Relief Audits.  The Auditor 4 is primarily responsible for ensuring that Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Associations (VFRFAs) funds are spent according to state law.  VFRAs are non-profit organizations established to afford financial protection to volunteer firefighters who suffer misfortune as a result of their efforts. VFRAs receive state aid from a two-percent state tax on fire insurance purchased by Pennsylvania residents from insurance companies outside the state.  These funds are used to pay for insurance to protect firefighters, purchase fire equipment, and to cover volunteer training expenses.  VFRAs are distinctly separate legal entities from fire companies.  The Auditor 4 motivates, empowers, and builds teamwork, providing mentorship and on-the-job  training to the audit staff.  


Specific work duties include, but are not limited to researching, learning, and applying laws, regulations, guidelines, and auditing standards, as well as locating, evaluating, and analyzing records and other information.  You will also create, input, access, and retrieve data, including but not limited to audit work papers, audit findings, and audit/administrative reports. This position also makes non-policy making decisions within the confines of the established audit program.
