Senior Associate, Forensic Accounting Brisbane
Forensic accounting is one of the fastest growing, most compelling areas in accounting, and most accountants never get exposed to it.
No 2 days are the same - you could be sitting in on court proceedings one week and working on a shareholder dispute the next, dealing with a genuinely wide range of clients and matters.
What you'll be doing
Working on forensic accounting and dispute advisory engagements
Preparing business valuations, loss and damage calculations and financial analysis
Reviewing financial performance and interpreting complex accounting information
Drafting reports and supporting expert evidence
Liaising with solicitors, clients and senior stakeholders
Contributing to business development and practice growth
What you'll need
CA, CPA or CFA qualified
Qualified accounting experience gained in public practice, audit, business services, insolvency or forensic accounting
Strong analytical skills and attention to detail
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
If you're coming from audit,
your financial statement fluency and evidence-based mindset transfer well here.
The main shift is learning to write for a legal audience rather than an audit file.
If you're coming from insolvency, your experience analysing distressed businesses and managing different stakeholders transfers directly into this kind of work.
For candidates already in forensic accounting, experience preparing valuation reports and/or commercial loss and damage reports would be highly regarded.
