We are looking for a permanent Senior Legal Accounts Investigator to join us.

Internally, this role is known as Senior Financial Investigator. As a Senior Financial Investigator, you will be responsible for working as part of a team to investigate financial records and identify who client monies should be returned to. You will attend interventions, identify and analyse relevant financial information, liaise with staff and clients of the intervened firm and engage with internal colleagues. You will present your findings and recommendations accurately and make decisions on the distribution of the money we have taken possession of (Statutory Trust). You will be prepared to justify your recommendations to our formal decision makers and adjudicators.
You will also oversee the work carried out by our panel solicitors, known as agents, working collaboratively with them to achieve the efficient and cost-effective distribution of the Statutory Trust. You will provide them with technical direction, development and support. This is a hands-on role where you will have opportunities to provide feedback to colleagues at all levels.
To succeed in this role you will be able to analyse and unpick complex numerical data sets, have the ability to manage, motivate and support others, be confident in engaging with stakeholders at all levels and seek to inspire best practice.
This role also requires excellent time and workload management, along with strong interpersonal skills and a keen eye for detail.
The role will require occasional short notice travel and the occasional overnight stay.
