Forensic Accounting & Valuation Services Leader

Forensic Accounting & Valuation Services Leader - Florida Offices
CPA & Advisory Firm | Fort Lauderdale, FL (with Florida office flexibility)
Full‑time | Leadership Role

A long‑established CPA and advisory firm with strong roots across New Jersey and Florida is looking to appoint a Forensic Accounting & Valuation Services Leader to spearhead and grow its practice across the Florida markets - with Miami being a major focus.

The firm provides a broad mix of accounting, audit, tax planning, valuation, and business advisory services to clients across industries including healthcare, manufacturing, and biotech. Their litigation support and forensic accounting offering is well‑regarded, and they're now looking to build a Florida‑based leader around whom they can grow the team.

This is an ideal step for someone who has spent the last few years testifying, building relationships, and bringing in work, and now wants the autonomy, ownership, and platform to take the reins of their own practice.

What the role looks like

You'll be the senior figure driving the growth of the forensic accounting and valuation offering across the Florida offices. The role includes:

• Leading forensic accounting, valuation, and litigation support engagements
• Serving as the key expert in disputes, investigations, economic damages, and valuations
• Developing business and expanding the firm's presence in South Florida
• Acting as the primary testifying expert for complex matters
• Building out and mentoring a growing team
• Working directly with attorneys, business owners, and corporate clients

This is a genuinely strategic role - you'll have the influence to shape the team, the practice direction, and how the service line scales in Florida.

What you bring

• Background in forensic accounting, valuation, litigation support, or economic damages
• Experience testifying or serving as an expert
• A track record of bringing in work or maintaining strong referral relationships
• CPA preferred, but the firm is open to strong forensic/valuation experts with alternative credentials
• Comfortable stepping into a leadership role with real autonomy

What's on offer

• A chance to lead and build a Florida forensic & valuation practice with full backing from an established CPA firm
• Strong support from partners with deep forensic, advisory, and accounting expertise
• A stable, respected platform with long‑standing clients in litigation, tax, and advisory
• The ability to hire and shape your own team
• Flexibility and the runway to grow a practice the right way
• Direct access to decision‑makers - no heavy internal bureaucracy
