Well, I can only speak from previous experience at a previous airline as EK is somewhat 'unique' in the way it manages its business, but;

Internal audit should exist to ensure that all policies and procedures are being complied with via scheduled audits to ensure diligent application of SOPs etc. A tactical role.

VPOO (if I understand the intention correctly) is responsible for ensuring that our own policies and procedures are, and remain, in compliance with GCAA/ICAO requirements etc. A strategic role.

Think of his role as analagous to that of a compliance officer at a third rate firm of Independent Financial Advisers!
