We are seeking a commercially minded, market-facing leader to drive the growth and adoption of our portfolio of digitally enabled and AI-enhanced forensic solutions across Europe, with extension into APAC. Our Integrity & Compliance solution is a flagship offering within this portfolio and will feature prominently — but the role spans the wider set of technology-led forensic solutions we need to commercialise.

The central purpose of the role is market activation : helping country and regional Forensics teams move from traditional, manual delivery to modern, technology-led ways of serving clients — and, in doing so, unlocking new revenue. The successful candidate will partner with local leaders to build go-to-market approaches, shape and win opportunities, and accelerate the adoption of new solutions in their markets.

This is a commercial and go-to-market role first . The successful candidate does not need deep, hands-on technical expertise, but must be fluent enough in forensic technology and AI to speak about it credibly
, translate capability into client value, and help territories both commercialise and deliver these solutions.

The successful candidate will partner with local leaders to build go-to-market approaches, shape and win opportunities, and accelerate the adoption of new solutions in their markets.

• Drive the execution of the European (and, by extension, APAC) growth strategy for our digitally enabled forensic solutions, aligned to global priorities and regional targets.
• Identify market opportunities, emerging regulatory trends and client needs to expand the solution portfolio across countries.
• Partner with Regional and Country Forensics leaders to build market plans, go-to-market approaches and priority pursuits.
• Develop practical playbooks, propositions, case studies and market materials that help countries accelerate revenue and client penetration.
• Track market performance and pipeline to focus effort where growth potential is greatest.

• Lead the shift from manual, traditional delivery to technology-led delivery — acting as the catalyst for behaviour change across local teams.
• Equip country leaders and teams to confidently position, sell and scale technology-enabled forensic solutions.
• Act as a trusted commercial advisor to country leaders establishing or expanding these offerings.
• Facilitate knowledge sharing and leading practices across Europe and APAC to build commercial momentum and consistency.
• Help local leaders understand — at the right level — how technology, analytics and AI translate into client value and competitive advantage.

• Support strategic pursuits and priority opportunities across the forensic solution portfolio, including Integrity & Compliance, investigations, monitoring, forensic data analytics, eDiscovery, third-party and regulatory risk, and AI-enabled solutions.
• Help countries shape complex proposals and solution approaches for priority opportunities.
• Identify cross-border opportunities and bring global capability to bear to win and deliver client work.
• Drive pipeline development and revenue growth across priority markets.

• Represent the firm at client forums, industry events and internal leadership meetings.
• Champion the firm's perspective on technology-enabled, AI-enhanced forensic solutions.
• Develop market insights and commercial materials that support business development and portfolio growth.
• Deliver compelling presentations and demos for country leaders, practitioners and clients.

• Build strong relationships with Regional and Country Forensics leaders to advance growth objectives.
• Influence senior stakeholders across geographies to back adoption and growth…
