Job description
The Examiner role is key to driving forward our business. You will identify, protect and realise assets to enable returns to creditors. You will ensure that those who are responsible for financial wrongdoing are identified, and appropriate enforcement action is taken. You will help those who need it.
Key duties will include:
Investigating and interrogating a wide range of tools and resources to locate bankrupts, company directors and assets.
Visiting trading premises of sole traders, and limited companies to conduct physical inspection and in some cases close the businesses down.
Conducting probing interviews with bankrupts, company directors and appropriate third parties, obtaining written statements
Person specification
The successful candidate will:
Have an inquisitive mind and be able to constructively challenge at all levels to achieve the right results.
Have a keen eye for details and a tenacious approach to your work.
Have strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

Communicate clearly and professionally, both verbally and in writing.
Be highly motivated, with an ability to work independently as appropriate and forward a case load.
Essential Criteria

Please note, if you are successful, you will be required to provide proof of holding the stipulated qualifications by producing certificates before onboarding can complete.
You will be committed to completing the Insolvency Service Investigator Programme within 2 years. This could require regular travel and overnight stays to attend training events.
Candidates should note that whilst the role is based in a single location there is a degree of flexibility required to meet the needs of the business – for example visiting trading premises which can be a short notice.
