You don't need a "big" firm to work closely with leading Experts , on calibre/complex cases

Your new company My client is an independent consultancy with presence in the UK, USA and the southern hemisphere. In Litigation, the Experts are consistently highly ranked in Chambers, including Global Leader and Thought Leader status. Your two main mentors are a great blend of seasoned and well-established, both with reputations which go beyond the firm itself. Alongside the very well-respected disputes/litigation function, the firm also spans asset-tracing/investigations, compliance/monitoring and sustainability/ESG. Work you'd have exposure to could include:

• contractual disputes
• joint venture and shareholder disputes
• post-acquisition claims
• warranty & indemnity matters
• international arbitration
• contentious valuations
• competition/ antitrust
• business interruption

The calibre of matters equates to those attracted by larger Expert firms. The firm has a longstanding reputation for growing new Experts and Partners.What you'll need to succeed This is the ideal role and firm for an ACA who has started their Forensic career but may be feeling that Experts/Partners are so far above them it's hard to get their attention or time. Your forensic experience thus far will have ideally leaned towards disputes and valuations; either way you need to see your Forensic career path ahead as being in the disputes/quantum/valuation field as opposed to fraud/compliance. Undoubtedly you'll be working for a "good firm" already - the question is are there too many people around you of your level, so that you find yourself in "lockstep" with them when it comes to promotion? Would you welcome the chance to take more control of your own development and progression? I fully appreciate you may be neither "on" nor indeed entirely "off" the market - if any of the above sounds like you, an exploratory discussion with me is entirely confidential and objective Please note this role/firm will not sponsor What you'll get in return

• Working with and consistent access to senior mentors and Experts
• High calibre matters which one would associate with "bigger brand " firms
• Upper quartile reward
• No in-country "competition" at your level - when you're ready for promotion, you'll get it
• Firm has a comparatively low PE gearing - investment when needed, but light touch and Partners retain control
