Our established Fraud Risk Services team is looking for more fraud experts. Our ideal candidate is someone that has a background and real interest in fraud prevention. We want someone that can very quickly start assisting our clients’ to identify gaps in their fraud controls and remedy these, or work with their teams to train their staff to recognise and prevent fraud.

On this occasion we are looking for people that are already experienced in some of our work areas. Please read the details below to ensure you can undertake these tasks, and include your relevant prior academic or practical experience, or transferable skills, in your cover letter.

Our team provides a range of counter fraud services to public and private sector clients. Many of our recurring clients are NHS bodies, who are required by the NHS Counter Fraud Authority (NHSCFA) to report annually against CFA requirements. Our NHS clients contract us for anything from 15 to 150 days per year to provide a full proactive (preventative) service. In addition to this our staff are accredited to undertake criminal investigations where our NHS clients are the victim of fraud.

Responsibilities

  • Undertaking Fraud and Bribery Risk Assessments – working with senior managers to understand the controls in place to mitigate fraud and bribery, testing the effectiveness of these, highlighting any missing/ ineffective controls, and scoring the residual risk.
