Exceptionally rare chance to be a strategic part of a fast-growth practice in this national Advisory firm Your new company A large, multi-office and independent firm, our client provides commercial, strategic and partner-led advice, being instructed by companies, investors, lenders and other stakeholders. Advisory streams across the firm include corporate finance, financial advisory, valuations, property consultancy, restructuring/corporate recovery and forensic accounting. As part of the firm's 3-4 year growth plan, Forensics is an area of key investment, as part of which a couple of lateral Partner hires have been made across the UK, and as a result the practice is seeing some significant business wins in fraud/financial investigations (reactive and proactive), whistleblowing and integrity/compliance. C Your new role Reporting straight into the lead Partner who has an impressive large and mid-firm background and following, this is a superb chance to both help shape and build the practice further, while running/delivering on projects such as: White collar crimeFraudMoney launderingICTBreachContract non-performanceTheft and briberyWhistleblowingConfidentiality breaches and conflicts of interestRisk, compliance and governance including framework agreements Clients are across a range of corporate, sector and institutions and include high profile entities - there may even be a chance of partly working in-house on the occasional client. This is a national practice, and the business development activities you conduct can be anywhere in the UK, but are likely to be concentrated most in your own area. What you'll need to succeed While the firm anticipates this is likeliest to be London, if you're based elsewhere in the UK then it's possible another office could be used as your base/hub. Do please enquire with me if that is the case. In the meantime, in terms of your expertise and background: ACA/ACCA or equivalent Current/ most recent experience to be operating a strong Manager or existing Senior Manager level in a UK firm . PLEASE NOTE you must currently be in a Consulting/Practice firm. Applications from any other background (banking etc) cannot be considered. Experience gained wholly/mainly in fraud, financial crime and investigations/litigation Running projects and/or workstreams in larger projects Off the starting blocks in business development terms and keen to do more Thriving on a fast pace! Sound and up-to-date knowledge of the compliance/regulatory landscape Please note this client has no ability to sponsor so international candidates cannot be considered at this time What you'll get in return In the current fraud market, the rare chance to get on the escalator of a genuinely fast-growth and well-invested function, headed by proven business leaders A wider firm whose core business is highly complementary to fraud & litigation work, and where cross-collaboration will become increasingly lucrative Meritocratic promotion - getting in on the early growth phase of this function means no "lockstep" A brand which is well-recognised across the UK, yet not so overshadowingly large that you can't build your own brand & profile within it An independent firm where conflicts are far rarer than in a full-service firm A young team and agile delivery model National forensic P&L so no "territorialism" Bonus, the allocation of which is strongly pegged to individual contribution (behavioural and quantitative!) What you need to do now Even if you think you're reasonably happy where you are, do please have a (100% confidential) conversation with me around how this business might not only differ from where you are, but be genuinely additive to your career. If you're interested in this role, click 'apply now' to forward an up-to-date copy of your CV, or call us now. If this job isn't quite right for you, but you are looking for a new position, please contact us for a confidential discussion about your career. #

Advisory streams across the firm include corporate finance, financial advisory, valuations, property consultancy, restructuring/corporate recovery and forensic accounting. As part of the firm's 3-4 year growth plan, Forensics is an area of key investment, as part of which a couple of lateral Partner hires have been made across the UK, and as a result the practice is seeing some significant business wins in fraud/financial investigations (reactive and proactive), whistleblowing and integrity/compliance. C Your new role Reporting straight into the lead Partner who has an impressive large and mid-firm background and following, this is a superb chance to both help shape and build the practice further, while running/delivering on projects such as: White collar crimeFraudMoney launderingICTBreachContract non-performanceTheft and briberyWhistleblowingConfidentiality breaches and conflicts of interestRisk, compliance and governance including framework agreements Clients are across a range of corporate, sector and institutions and include high profile entities - there may even be a chance of partly working in-house on the occasional client. This is a national practice, and the business development activities you conduct can be anywhere in the UK, but are likely to be concentrated most in your own area. What you'll need to succeed While the firm anticipates this is likeliest to be London, if you're based elsewhere in the UK then it's possible another office could be used as your base/hub. Do please enquire with me if that is the case. In the meantime, in terms of your expertise and background: ACA/ACCA or equivalent Current/ most recent experience to be operating a strong Manager or existing Senior Manager level in a UK firm . PLEASE NOTE you must currently be in a Consulting/Practice firm. Applications from any other background (banking etc) cannot be considered. Experience gained wholly/mainly in fraud, financial crime and investigations/litigation Running projects and/or workstreams in larger projects Off the starting blocks in business development terms and keen to do more Thriving on a fast pace! Sound and up-to-date knowledge of the compliance/regulatory landscape Please note this client has no ability to sponsor so international candidates cannot be considered at this time What you'll get in return In the current fraud market, the rare chance to get on the escalator of a genuinely fast-growth and well-invested function, headed by proven business leaders A wider firm whose core business is highly complementary to fraud & litigation work, and where cross-collaboration will become increasingly lucrative Meritocratic promotion - getting in on the early growth phase of this function means no "lockstep" A brand which is well-recognised across the UK, yet not so overshadowingly large that you can't build your own brand & profile within it An independent firm where conflicts are far rarer than in a full-service firm A young team and agile delivery model National forensic P&L so no "territorialism" Bonus, the allocation of which is strongly pegged to individual contribution (behavioural and quantitative!) What you need to do now Even if you think you're reasonably happy where you are, do please have a (100% confidential) conversation with me around how this business might not only differ from where you are, but be genuinely additive to your career.
