Rose Rasmussen has been appointed to the Internal Audit director role. She began in the position on Aug. 1. The responsibilities of her new position include overseeing the City’s Internal Audit Office, which is charged with assisting City Council with oversight of City resources through audits and fraud investigations, and ensuring City government remains transparent and accountable. 

 

Rasmussen’s employment with the City began in March 2014 when she started working as a financial analyst. Upon establishment of the Internal Audit Office, she was promoted to senior internal auditor where she aided in developing the office. An Army veteran, Rasmussen has over 20 years of accounting, finance and audit experience.

 

Rasmussen is enthusiastic about her new role and her opportunity to play a part in City leadership during a time of transformative growth. She anticipates leveraging her broad view of the organization to provide key perspective to City leaders while growing and developing her team. 

 

Rasmussen spoke about the specific professional privileges and challenges that accompany work as an auditor: “Every audit is a new challenge and a chance to improve our City’s processes. As an auditor, we are privileged to work with all City departments and learn about their processes. This gives the Internal Audit Office a holistic view of the organization. The Internal Audit team will expand as we hire new employees. We anticipate the creation of a flexible audit plan that will allow the Internal Audit Office to focus on areas where our attention is needed, when we are needed.”
