Job Details

Your new company
Our client is a large UK and European firm with a full suite of advisory and assurance services, and a clearly identifiable set of values, including a real commitment to life-work balance (in that order.) They have developed a national Forensic offering across 3-4 different locations, and all with a slightly different mix of cases; acting as a single Forensic P&L though means work could come from any of the Partners. This role nonetheless will be predominantly London casework centric.
You'll be mentored by young Partners who have achieved Expert and Partner status under their own steam, and can help you do the same.

Your new role
Working mainly for the London Expert, you'll be contributing to the production of expert witness and advisory reports, quantifying losses and valuing businesses. The firm attracts a wide range of casework sizes, so you've got a really good chance here to cut your teeth on something you've never done before, eg. drafting your first whole Expert report.
Casework can include:

Quantification of damages Breach of contract Warranty disputes Post transaction disputes Contentious valuations Shareholder disputes and matrimonial Non-contentious valuations Mediation/expert determination Occasional investigations linked to restructuring/insolvency

What you'll need to succeed

ACA/ACCA qualified You've either trained in Forensics, or you converted into it on qualification You may even have converted into valuations, but are not getting any/sufficient exposure to the Expert side and want to change that An interest in developing your forensic career to be centred around quantum/damages/valuations Happy to be part of BD and contributing ideas on this too A "people person" - this firm prides itself on how they interact with their clients

What you'll get in return

A great balance of professional development both received and given The team recruits its own graduates so you have proper delivery infrastructure underneath you Mentoring by young, successful Experts/Partners as well as more established A firm committed to life as much as work, and with the values and systems in place to support this

Quantum Computing Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK quantum computing hiring has shifted from credential‑first screening to capability‑driven evaluation. Employers now value provable contributions across the stack—algorithms & applications, compilation & optimisation, circuit synthesis, control & calibration, hardware characterisation, error mitigation/correction (QEM/QEC), verification/benchmarking, and hybrid HPC/quantum workflows—plus the ability to communicate trade‑offs, costs and feasibility to non‑quantum teams. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews and how to prepare—especially for quantum algorithm engineers, quantum software/compilers, experimentalists, quantum control & firmware, cryo/readout engineers, quantum error correction researchers, verification/benchmarking specialists, and quantum‑adjacent product managers. Who this is for: Quantum algorithm/applications engineers, compiler/optimisation engineers, control/firmware engineers, experimental physicists & hardware engineers (superconducting, trapped ion, photonic, spin/neutral atom), cryogenics & RF/microwave, QEC researchers, verification/benchmarking specialists, quantum‑HPC orchestration engineers, and product/BD roles in the UK quantum ecosystem.

Why Quantum Computing Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Quantum computing has long been considered an elite subfield of physics and computer science. But as quantum technologies advance—from fault-tolerant hardware to quantum algorithms and quantum cryptography—they’re moving closer to real applications in finance, materials simulation, optimisation, cryptography and more. As this transition happens, UK quantum computing careers are becoming increasingly multidisciplinary. Quantum systems are no longer just the domain of physicists and quantum software engineers. If quantum technologies are to be trusted, adopted and regulated, professionals must also incorporate expertise in law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. In practice, quantum computing projects now intersect with data governance, risk, human interaction, explainability and communication. In this article, we’ll explore why quantum computing careers in the UK are shifting to multidisciplinary roles, how these five supporting fields intersect with quantum work, and what job-seekers & employers should do to keep up in this evolving frontier.

Quantum Computing Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Quantum Department

Quantum computing has shifted from lab curiosity to the next frontier of high-impact computing. Across the UK, universities, national labs, start-ups, and established tech and finance firms are building quantum teams to explore algorithms, design hardware, and deliver quantum-ready software. As momentum grows, so does the need for clear, robust team structures. Because quantum R&D spans physics, engineering, computer science, and product, ambiguity about who does what can slow progress, increase risk, and inflate costs. This guide maps the typical roles in a modern quantum computing department, how they collaborate across the research-to-product lifecycle, skills and backgrounds UK employers expect, indicative salary ranges, common pitfalls, and practical ways to structure teams that move fast without breaking science.
