Strategic disputes lead for this successful, multi-faceted and eight figure billing Forensic function Your new company My client is a nationwide Advisory firm with strong international affiliations. Specialising in Corporate Finance, Financial Advisory, Valuations, Forensics, Restructucturing/Debt Advisory and more, the firm is unencumbered by an audit or tax compliance base, and expansion has been predominantly organic with the occasional acquisition. The majority of matters it is referred come from law firms, making it consistently fertile territory for Expert work. The whole firm is superbly positioned to pivot with the ever-fluid economic landscape, being a longstanding trusted advisor to its clients in navigating complexity, seizing opportunities and achieving sustainable growth. The Forensic function is a rare entity in the market in that it encompasses a competitively wide range of matters, with at this stage no especial bias or "lean." Broadly speaking these include investigations, risk & compliance, commercial and shareholder/valuation disputes. It has been supported by an FTech function since inception. The team has on-the-ground presence and leadership from north to south in the UK, so is not trying to service everything just from a London hub. There is an established, "proper pyramid" delivery model which includes graduate trainees and many experienced hires who have chosen to join from larger firms. Directors/Partners are therefore genuinely empowered to originate, grow, lead and mentor. The team also benefits from a very low attrition rate.
