Key Responsibilities:
  • Lead and deliver forensic valuation and expert witness assignments
  • Draft clear, robust, and defensible expert reports
  • Act as the primary point of contact for clients and legal teams
  • Manage and mentor junior staff across engagements
  • Contribute to strategic business development initiatives and networking

About You:
  • ACA/CA or equivalent qualification
  • Substantial experience in forensic accounting, ideally within disputes or valuations
  • Excellent report writing and communication skills
  • Commercially sharp, with a genuine interest in developing business and client networks
  • Proven ability to manage projects independently and lead small teams
  • Ambitious and motivated, looking for a clear path to Partnership

This is a rare opportunity for a seasoned Manager ready for promotion, or a Senior Manager seeking broader exposure, autonomy, and a faster route to leadership. If you're excited by the idea of taking on more responsibility and shaping the direction of a growing disputes practice, we'd love to hear from you.
