Veritau was established in 2009 as a local authority shared service company.   The company is jointly owned by North Yorkshire County Council and the City of York Council.  Both councils regard this shared service as a long term partnership.

Public sector budgets are coming under significant pressure.  Savings and improvements in efficiency must therefore be achieved whilst services and levels of performance are maintained.  The challenge is therefore to ensure that overall governance arrangements remain effective at a time of considerable change.

The company’s mission is to:

To deliver an efficient, effective and professional audit, information governance and counter fraud service which is responsive to the needs of our customers and which is held in high esteem by all stakeholders.

Our customers

Veritau has quickly become an established name in the provision of public sector assurance services.  Our customers include local authorities, national parks, school academies and ‘not for profit’ public service organisations.

So, what does this mean for you?

We provide our clients with an independent and professional service, tailored to meet their needs.  To support our work we have a dedicated team of internal audit and governance related specialists with the skills and public sector experience necessary to deliver added value.
