Well farhan u see CIMA is a very good and prosperous qualification. and yes top is always vacant. But what you have to consider about pakistani job market is the fact that most of the existing companies already have CA's hoging the top places. Even the job adverts that come for the top post require a CA. I am not trying to discourage you from doing CIMA as the potential has to be within you. As far as doing CA is concerned I really dont think that its a good idea for you after MBA. although you can look at it but in my opinion it would be a better idea for you to consider qualifications like ACCA, CIMA or CMA from us.
As for internal audit, im not too sure but from what i know the code of corporate governance states that the head of internal audit can only be a CA or a CPA in public limited companies whereas as for private limited companies it can be anyone.
