About The Role
FTI Consulting is seeking a highly motivated and experienced Senior Consultant to join its Forensic Litigation and Consulting (FLC) team in São Paulo, Brazil. This team specializes in conducting corporate investigations, compliance and integrity assessments, and ESG evaluations. It uncovers actionable business intelligence, supports clients in commercial disputes, and provides clear, strategic analysis to help decision-makers mitigate risk, protect assets, and capitalize on opportunities across various jurisdictions.
The team's expertise includes investigative due diligence, asset tracing, fraud and anti-corruption investigations, litigation support, whistleblower allegations, third-party integrity screening, political risk assessments, and other tailored engagements.
The ideal candidate will be a seasoned, analytically minded professional with excellent writing skills and a strong work ethic. They should have experience working in a commercial environment and demonstrate the ability to take initiative. As a team player, the candidate must effectively engage with senior management, junior analysts, and clients. As a skilled communicator, they should excel at conveying complex ideas clearly and articulating findings to both internal and external audiences.

What You'll Do
Senior Consultants play a critical role in supporting a diverse range of complex, multi-jurisdictional projects. These include conducting risk assessments, compliance and ESG analyses, investigations, and investigative due diligence.
In this role, Senior Consultants are expected to coordinate and guide the work of junior analysts while also performing independent, high-quality research and analysis. This involves leveraging a variety of search engines and proprietary databases available to the company, all while managing multiple assignments simultaneously.
