The role involves managing claims with clear terms, working with industry practices, regional units, and cross-functional teams. The forensic accountant will advise clients, facilitate services, and build relationships across the insurance market, including with legal and accounting professionals.

This largely UK-based role requires travel to offices, clients, and loss sites, with occasional overseas travel. The ideal candidate is an experienced forensic accountant with knowledge of business continuity, business interruption claims, and risk management.
