Counter Fraud Manager

Ambition are proud to partner with a leading global Independent consultancy firm who are looking for a Fraud Manager to work as part of their Proactive Fraud team.

The main purpose of this role is for you to deliver on proactive fraud assignments for a predominantly public sector client base. Acting as the trusted fraud advisor, you will be expected to deliver fraud prevention programmes and fraud risk training to clients that are exposed to the risks of fraudulent activity.

Taking a commercial approach to each project is key in terms of delivering work on time to quality and against cost so you will need to be mindful of the planning behind each assignment. In addition, you will be expected to regularly present to clients on fraud prevention strategies and fraud prevention measures.

As the Fraud Risk Manager, you will monitor the compliance and quality of work undertaken by the team whilst also representing the firm at various networking events. In addition, you will be expected to provide support, development and training to more junior staff members through offering feedback on performance and running appraisals whilst also taking an active role in future recruitment and the strategy behind succession planning in the team.

There is also going to be an element of travel in the role as you will need to visit clients in person to assess the risks and consult on-site to provide a proactive fraud prevention service.

To be considered for the role, you must have a good understanding of proactive fraud prevention and have had involvement in the public sector (Local Authority, NHS etc). Those with an internal audit background that are interested in getting hands on with investigative projects will also be considered as risk assessment skills and face to face consulting is key.

Those with the LCFS / ACFS qualification will be strongly considered although having good levels of proactive fraud experience is equally important. Aside from the technical skills, an ability to work unsupervised, use initiative and have high working standards will be required.

This is the largest team of its kind within professional services and so if you are seeking a move into the private sector then this will give you the chance to join the market leader at a grade with high levels of responsibility.
