About the Role
As a Senior Associate, you will gain unparalleled exposure to significant, high-profile projects relating to disputes and investigation of matters, often working closely with colleagues in different business units or jurisdictions.

Day-to-day responsibilities:
- Providing advice in the initial stages of a commercial dispute or contentious investigation and assisting to scope the work required

- Providing technical accounting advice and financial analysis to lawyers
- Assisting clients with their investigations into fraud or other financial issues
- Drafting expert witness reports
- Assisting directors or managing directors during a court or tribunal hearing
- Building client relationships, identifying and sourcing new work, and new product development
