With high-profile corporate fraud cases at the forefront of the news, it’s more important than ever for businesses to maintain the authoritative knowledge it takes to investigate and prevent fraud. Preventing and detecting fraud is all about identifying potential risks – using existing trends and emerging technology to accelerate intelligent decision making and build more efficient finance functions. Our clients look to us to make it happen, and as a Forensic Data Analytics Senior, you’ll be right at the heart of that goal. It’s a role with far-reaching implications, so you’ll be working with stakeholders across industries with some of the most innovative tools available.  

 

The opportunity  

With significant recent investment, we’re experiencing rapid growth in this area. Our Forensic Data Analytics team is working with industry- leading anti-fraud and forensic data analytics technologies to develop innovative recommendations to some of the most challenging fraud and risk issues around. Since we work with such a diverse portfolio of clients across industries, you can expect to take on a wide range of big data challenges, making this a great place to develop your technical and business knowledge.  

 

Your key responsibilities  

It’s no exaggeration to say you’ll never be doing the same task for too long. You’re likely to balance your time between engagement planning with other Data Analytics team members and actively analyzing complex data. It’s all about using your technical skills to creatively assess and resolve our clients’ needs from the front lines. That means thinking differently about the role of data analytics in the support of litigation and fraud investigations, and speaking up with innovative ideas that challenge the status quo.
