Job description

Forvis Mazars:
who are we?

Forvis Mazars is a leading global professional services network providing audit & assurance, tax, and advisory services. Forvis Mazars in the UK spans 14 offices across the UK and has over 3,400 professionals, with 190 partners. We have a clear purpose and a shared commitment to shape a better future.

You'll join a collaborative and inclusive team where you're supported to grow your skills, explore new opportunities, and contribute from day one.

You'll work with a diverse client base, develop meaningful connections, and gain experience that extends beyond your local team. Together, we grow, belong and impact.

About The Advisory & Consulting Team

At Forvis Mazars, our Advisory and Consulting service line is an award winning, global group of successful, entrepreneurial teams.

The scope of roles across our service line is broad and varied which is great for our team and clients.

The diversity of our service offering enables us to make the time we spend with our clients count by helping them take meaningful, key decisions with confidence and meet their goals.

In Advisory & Consulting, collaboration is at the core of all we do.

We have over 800 experts across our teams who operate as subject matter experts across our 6 business units:

Deals and Financing, Financial Services Consulting, Consulting, Infrastructure Finance, Forensics and Completion and Restructuring & Insolvency with the aim of adding value to clients by finding solutions to a range of financial issues as one collaborative team.

Join a team that prioritises quality and trust.

Our team is commercial, pragmatic, and reactive to the changes in the market whilst also taking the time to ensure our approach is personal and productive.

About The Forensics & Investigations Team


Are you ready to launch your career in a team that combines intellectual challenge with real-world impact? Our Forensics & Investigations team is a progressive, close-knit group of over 35 professionals based across four offices in the UK and India.

We work on high-profile, complex cases that span two key areas:

Disputes


We Act As Financial And Accounting Experts, Either As Independent Expert Witnesses Or Expert Advisors In a Wide Range Of Disputes.

These Typically Arise In The Context Of Litigation Or Arbitration, Such As

Post-M&A disputes
Investment arbitration
Financial reporting disputes
Breach of contract claims
Professional negligence cases

Our work is analytical, rigorous, and often central to resolving multi-million-pound legal matters.

Investigations & Compliance

We conduct financial investigations for corporates and public entities, including:

Fraud and corruption investigations
Regulatory and government inquiries
Compliance reviews and advisory

We're the team businesses turn to when things get complex.

From helping organisations strengthen their internal controls to guiding them through tricky regulatory challenges, our work is all about problem-solving and impact.

One day, you might be supporting a multinational energy company in a multi-billion-dollar arbitration; the next, you could be assisting a local authority with procurement concerns or investigating potential financial reporting fraud for a national regulator.

No two days are the same, and you'll gain exposure to a wide range of sectors and clients.

This means your apprenticeship will be hands-on, exciting, and intellectually stimulating giving you real responsibility and the chance to make a difference from day one.

Excellent problem-solving skills
A commitment to high standards
