Description

Houston Methodist is seeking experienced audit professionals—an Internal Audit Specialist and a Senior Internal Auditor—to join our Internal Audit team and contribute to our mission of unparalleled excellence in healthcare. These roles are essential in supporting organizational integrity, compliance, and operational effectiveness, and they reflect Houston Methodist’s commitment to excellence and continuous improvement.

The Internal Audit Specialist position requires a minimum of six years of experience in internal auditing, accounting, public accounting, or healthcare operations.

Our Internal Audit department consists of 10 professionals who deliver quantifiable, value-added assurance and consulting services through independent assessments of organizational risks and controls. The department has a strong track record of professional and career development—several team members have advanced into management and operational roles within Houston Methodist.

Houston Methodist is one of the nation’s leading nonprofit health systems and academic medical centers, located in the heart of the world-renowned Texas Medical Center. The health system includes eight hospitals: Houston Methodist Hospital, our flagship academic hospital, seven community hospitals, and one long-term acute care hospital across the Greater Houston area.
