Forensics and Valuations- Seniors and Managers

Numbers tell a story. In forensic accounting, the job is to find the true one and provide financial clarity when it matters most.

We're growing our national forensic team and hiring across Seniors to Managers looking to grow their Forensics and Valuations experience and contribute to leading engagements and shaping the practice. If forensic accounting and/or business valuations is where you want to specialise, we want to hear from you.

The work

Our forensic team sits at the intersection of accounting, law and investigation. Depending on the engagement, you could be:

• Preparing expert witness reports and giving evidence in court or arbitration
• Valuing businesses and assets for disputes, transactions or family law matters
• Quantifying economic loss and loss of profits, including business interruption claims
• Investigating suspected fraud or malfeasance, tracing funds and reconstructing financial records
• Reviewing business processes and controls to work out how, and why, something went wrong
• Supporting our insolvency practitioners with forensic and financial analysis on complex external administrations
• Briefing lawyers, liaising with regulators and clients, and translating dense financial findings into plain English for people who aren't accountants

No two files look the same. This work sits behind some of the most contested and high-stakes financial questions businesses and individuals face and every report you write needs to hold up under scrutiny.

You'll be part of one national team, working alongside forensic specialists and drawing on their experience as much as your own.
