Investigations & Forensics - Manager

About the role

Join PwC as an Investigations & Forensics Manager within our collaborative Enterprise Risk & Forensics business unit. You will help clients prepare for, respond to and emerge stronger from suspected fraud, bribery and corruption, misconduct, financial irregularities and other serious issues.

You will lead significant workstreams, combining accounting judgement, financial analysis, project management and clear communication to deliver fact-based investigations and practical risk improvements. This opportunity particularly suits a qualified accountant seeking to apply financial expertise in an investigative environment. Location and travel expectations will be confirmed during the recruitment process.

What your days will look like

You will turn complex evidence into clear, defensible findings while keeping sensitive engagements on track.

• Lead investigation workstreams from scoping and planning through analysis, reporting and close-out.
• Review financial statements, records, journal entries, payments, contracts and transaction patterns.
• Assess fraud, bribery and corruption frameworks, controls and governance, then develop practical remediation roadmaps.
• Manage workplans, budgets, timelines, risks and quality, while coaching junior colleagues and communicating with senior stakeholders.

This role is for you if

• You are a qualified accountant, such as ACA, ACCA, CIMA or International equivalent.
• You have relevant experience in investigations, forensic accounting, audit, disputes, risk or financial analysis.
• You understand financial statements, accounting records, transaction flows and internal controls.
• You have delivered fraud, bribery or corruption risk management advisory work.
• You can distinguish evidence from assumption and form clear, defensible conclusions.
• You have led substantial workstreams or smaller engagements, balancing quality, commercial priorities and deadlines.
• You communicate clearly with senior stakeholders and handle sensitive information with care.
