9h

About The Position

The USAO regularly investigates, litigates, and prosecutes matters involving data and financial information. These matters include civil and criminal health care fraud, grant fraud, Government contracting fraud, investment fraud, and other forms of white-collar crime. These investigations and cases often require an employee to review bank records, health care claims data, audit reports, and other materials of a financial nature. Current investigative support through the USAO’s partner law enforcement agencies does not consistently provide the necessary expertise or analysis. A Senior Financial Analyst/Investigator is necessary for the USAO to pursue these types of cases. The Contractor shall provide one Senior Financial Analyst/Investigator.

Requirements

• Minimum Bachelor’s degree in law enforcement, criminal justice, accounting, finance or related field.
• Minimum five (5) years of experience in financial investigation and/or litigation.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office software programs (i.e., Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, etc.)
• U.S. Citizenship and ability to obtain adjudication for the requisite background investigation

Nice To Haves

• Experience and expertise in performing the requisite services in Section 3
• CPA Certification
• Experience working with a federal or state law enforcement entity

Responsibilities

• Conducting analyses of data and financial information. Reviewing data and other financial information to identify fraud schemes, harm to the Government, and the submission of health care claims. For example, the analysis would commonly involve identifying all relevant health care claims for a particular fraud scheme and tallying how much was paid by the Government as a result of the scheme.
• Searching for assets and funds obtained from illegal conduct. A common issue in fraud cases is finding where the illegally obtained funds were sent to or identifying all of the assets of a defendant. The Senior Financial Analyst/Investigator shall trace the funds of a fraud and determine what assets, if any, the USAO can recover from a defendant who engaged in fraud.
• Investigating and considering legal theories to pursue for cases. The Senior Financial Analyst/Investigator, in reviewing the evidence in a matter, will also consider and consult with AUSAs on what legal theories can best be used to address the case. For example, some cases may be better pursued as a civil matter instead of criminal prosecution. Other cases require reviewing a set of regulations and billing guidance to determine what, if any, regulations/guidance were violated by the defendants.
• Assisting in the presentation of data and financial information throughout an investigation, litigation, and prosecution through exhibits and other means. Presenting the evidence of a fraud scheme to a jury, judge, and opposing counsel often requires visual exhibits and other means of summarizing the information obtained. The Senior Financial Analyst/Investigator shall assist and consult with attorneys on how best to present the information and create such exhibits.
• Other related duties as assigned and within scope
