Paper 1 - Internal Audit Report Recruitment Cover

This document contains the internal audit plan for 2024/25, focusing on recruitment at the Cairngorms National Park Authority. The audit, conducted by Azets, reviewed the Park Authority's recruitment and onboarding processes and found that while the Park Authority has robust policies, there are some areas for improvement. Three recommendations have been made, with management accepting them all. These include a more systematic process for documenting recruitment proposals and the development of a timeframe for reviewing the Recruitment and Selection Policy. The Audit and Risk Committee is asked to consider the internal auditors report and findings.
