an old term for "förvaltningsrevision" "två olika begrepp inom revision: sakrevision och sifferrevision (siffergranskning).
Båda uttrycken användes långt in på 1900-talet men är numera utmönstrade ur revisionsvokabulären. Sakrevision innebar granskning av styrelsens och verkställande direktörens förvaltning, det vill säga vår tids förvaltningsrevision..."

Peer comment(s):

Operations Auditor

A guess based on this dictionary:

Another possibility could be "lay auditor"

Actually, I withdraw my second suggestion of lay auditor (Lekmannarevisor)
