Your new company \n 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 some 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), whistle-blowing and integrity/compliance. Your new role \n Acting closely with and as the #2 to 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: \n\n • White collar crime\n, • Fraud\n, • Money laundering\n, • ICT\n, • Breach\n, • Contract non-performance\n, • Theft and bribery\n, • Whistle-blowing\n, • Confidentiality breaches and conflicts of interest\n, • Risk, compliance and governance including framework agreements\n\n 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.
