Performance Auditors
Job Summary
Performance auditor conducts performance audits of government agencies, programs, or activities. Newly recruited auditors receive tailored performance audit training that enable them to carry out work assigned. Initially, they are given more routine assignments under close supervision by more experienced staff. As they gain on-the-job experience, performance auditors are expected to be able to take on more difficult assignments with increasingly less direct supervision.

As an audit team member, the performance auditor assists in developing the audit plan for the team, conducts a particular phase or section of the audit and contributes to audit report writing.
This involves the independent review and evaluation of the economy, efficiency, effectiveness and legal compliance of various government agencies, programs and activities.
