About this Associate — Forensic Investigations role at Berkeley Research Group (BRG)

Berkeley Research Group (BRG) · Onsite · Dusseldorf, GER

We Do Consulting Differently


We are establishing BRG's Forensic Investigations practice in Germany. This is a genuine build — a new team, in a new market, with the methodology, credentials and global network of an established international firm behind it, and without the constraints of a legacy structure.


The practice focuses on two connected disciplines: forensic accounting and fraud investigations, and forensic technology and eDiscovery. Our work typically arises where the facts are contested and the stakes are high — special investigations for supervisory boards and audit committees, allegations of financial misstatement, corruption and misappropriation, regulatory and criminal proceedings, and post-transaction disputes.


Our entry-level role for graduates and career starters. No prior forensic experience is required — curiosity, precision and a head for data are what matter.


Your Responsibilities

  • Support forensic analyses: preparing, cleansing and reconciling data from accounting and ERP systems.
  • Review documents in eDiscovery platforms and apply the review protocol consistently.
  • Research corporate registries, public filings and open sources, and summarise findings clearly.
  • Prepare and maintain working papers, indices and evidence logs.
  • Build exhibits, tables and charts for investigation reports.
  • Assist with the logistical and organisational side of investigations — which, on a live matter, is a substantial contribution in its own right.

Your Profile

  • A completed or nearly completed degree in business administration, accounting, economics, finance, law, information systems, data science or a comparable subject.
  • Internships or working student roles in audit, forensics, compliance, law or data analytics are welcome but not a prerequisite.
  • An Interest in any of the following: Forensic Accounting, Digital Forensics, Artificial Intelligence or Forensic Data Review.
  • Confident Excel skills. Any exposure to SQL, Python or R is a bonus.
  • Meticulousness. In this work, the detail that seems irrelevant is often the one that matters.
  • A discreet and professional manner — you will handle sensitive information from your first week.
  • Fluent German and English, both written and spoken.

What We Offer

  • A structured onboarding programme and a mentor from your first day.
  • Early exposure to real investigations rather than back-office support work.
  • Funding and study leave for professional qualifications — CFE, ACCA, CPA or the Wirtschaftsprüferexamen.
  • A clearly defined path to Consultant with transparent criteria.
  • Competitive starting salary, hybrid working and 28 days of annual leave.

How to Apply

Please send your CV, together with a brief note on your motivation and your earliest possible start date. Certificates and references are welcome but not required at first contact.


We review applications on a rolling basis and aim to respond within ten working days. All enquiries are treated in strict confidence — we are aware that candidates in this field often apply while in a sensitive current role.
