Manager - Forensics Services (Risk Consulting)

Why you should consider joining us: 

The Vietnam Forensic team is a small (six-person) but busy group, split between Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. The team handles a wide range of forensic engagements, although we have a heavy weighting towards fact-finding exercises for multinational corporations (MNCs). We are also dedicated to the prevention, detection, and fact-finding related to financial crime, including fraud, market abuse, and other regulatory malpractice. We apply technology-based solutions to identify fraud risks and assist clients in closing down fraud schemes. We advise clients on ways to mitigate risk, improve corporate compliance, and enhance key business processes. 

This is a management role where you will oversee the team and gain further exposure to high-profile and complex assignments across Vietnam. At any one time, you will be expected to manage multiple projects simultaneously and delegate work effectively to your team. You will also get to engage with senior-level client representatives, both in Vietnam and internationally. 

Skills preferred: 

• Strong forensic investigative skills with at least six years of financial or non-financial fact-finding work – logical, analytical, articulate, confident, and professional. 

• Comfortable working in a different culture on a variety of engagements, with the ability to take initiative when necessary. 

• Ability to develop and maintain strong client relationships to ensure ongoing trust and collaboration. 

• Team-oriented mindset. Able to work with client staff and colleagues of all grades and backgrounds – but also not afraid to ‘roll up the sleeves’ and help out at the grassroots level. 

• Curious mindset and attention to detail, as well as a clear understanding of the commercial issues facing businesses and how to influence client conversations. 

• Offer a flexible, accurate, and at times innovative approach. 

• Able to prepare concise and engaging reports, delivering messages with impact. 

• Adaptable to changing circumstances and with the ability to reprioritise as needed. 

• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously. 

• Experience conducting interviews with stakeholders, witnesses, and suspects as part of the fact-finding process. 

• Able to articulate complex issues clearly in written and verbal communication appropriate to diverse audiences. 

• Enjoy coaching and developing team members. 

• Act with integrity and show care for the people you work with. 

• Accounting and legal qualifications will be a plus. 

• Ability to mobilise to clients' premises/travel. Many forensic engagements may occur with little advance notice and are of indeterminate duration, requiring significant flexibility on behalf of our consultants. 

Key Requirements: 

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, Engineering, or a related field. 

• Relevant certifications such as Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE), Certified Forensic Accountant (CrFA), or Certified Public Accountant (CPA) are highly desirable. 

• Minimum of 6 years (or more) of experience in forensic advisory, with experience in audit/internal audit or a related fields being an advantage. 

• Computer forensics experiences with e-Discovery tools will be a plus. 

• A BSc and/or MSc in Accounting or Computer Science would be beneficial. 

• Experience in conducting fact-finding reviews, analyzing financial data, and preparing reports. 

• A proven track record of providing exceptional service and establishing and maintaining strong relationships with stakeholders.
