Principal External Auditor
Please cross-reference the usage of the term "مفوض المراقبة" in points 6 & 7 of the following document in its Arabic version with its respective English translation:
Beirut May 27, 2011
The Governor of Banque du Liban
Chairman of the Special Investigation Commission
Riad Toufic Salamé
Annex attached to SIC Circular No 5
This document in both Arabic and English can be found at the web references cited below.
I would add "principal" the beginning of the job title since there doesn't seem to be a better synonym for "اساسي" in this context. Perhaps the concept of a Principal External Auditor is only native to the Arabic world.
Sounds like someone who is in charge of monitoring the external auditors if you can find a better term.

Example sentence:
The fulfillment of these tasks must be verified by the external auditor.
على أن يتثبت مفوض المراقبة من قيامها بهذه المهام
Note from asker:
| Thanks. "External auditor" and "statutory auditor" (the earlier suggestion) seem to be treated synonymously in many contexts. I'd award you Kudos points too if I could, but "statutory auditor" came in first. I think أساسي here probably has no strict technical sense, but rather just means the 'primus inter pares'. |
