Scope of Service:

Chain of Custody Auditing

Terms of Reference:

SCS Chain of Custody field auditors are contract positions who must manage a large number of clients 
within a geographical region. The nature of this work is that contracts are occasional at first, and the 
practice quickly builds to an equivalent of part-time and perhaps full-time work within a few years. You will 
travel to the offices, warehouses and manufacturing facilities of our clients. On-site evaluations 
include a review of company documentation and handling procedures, manufacturing reports and 
purchase and sales documentation. You will conduct meetings and interviews with relevant staff. 
Detailed reports of the assessments must be written and submitted within a timely manner. The ideal 
candidate is willing to work on an as-needed basis, and able to make numerous short trips 
(typical audits are same-day or overnight trips). You must be able to effectively manage multiple client 
relationships, and have superb organizational and communication skills. On-going training is provided 
by SCS.
