The current core of the role is criminal defence forensic accounting work, including areas such as POCA, confiscation, fraud, money laundering and wider financial analysis. However, Forths sees scope to grow the department into related areas, potentially including privately funded fraud, prosecution work, regulatory matters and other specialist accounting disputes.
No. Forths already has a steady flow of criminal forensic accounting work and a small, committed team in place. We are interested in candidates who can deliver high-quality technical work, review and sign off reports, support the team and help maintain continuity. That said, there is also a clear opportunity for someone more market-facing who wants to help grow the department over time.
The role is based in Leeds or Manchester. However, Forths prides itself on avoiding “ivory tower” culture. They are a team of down-to-earth professionals who focus on output and quality. We recommend discussing specific flexibility requirements with Don Aitken during the initial confidential conversation.
Forths is part of the Frenkel Topping Group and is about to enter an exciting phase of private equity ownership. Practically, this means significant investment, greater stability, and opportunities for growth, while retaining the collegiate, supportive culture established in 2002.
Absolutely. Discretion is paramount and confidentiality underpins everything we do. KUDU Search has been retained exclusively for this assignment. All discussions are strictly confidential, and no details, including fact finding calls, will be shared without your consent.
