Auditor competences

I know the internal audit must be performed by a qualified internal auditor. Would that have to be an ISO 27001 qualified auditor or would someone with an ISO 9001 Lead auditor qualification, if they built the ISMS, be sufficient?

Answer:

If you already are a qualified ISO 9001 lead auditor you only have to evidence competence on ISO 27001 to be able to audit an ISMS, and implementing an ISMS is one way to evidence such competency.

These materials will provide you further explanation about auditor qualification:
