Ken Johnson


Ken is a qualified Accredited Counter Fraud Specialist, who has wide range of career and life experience. He currently manages a team of qualified investigators and support officers who are recognised nationally (Alarm Risk Awards, Team of the Year) for mitigating the risks associated with fraudulent activity across local government and beyond. He has worked in the field of counter fraud for over 5 years as an investigator and 7 years as a manager.

He is a highly motivated individual who is passionate about protecting the public purse, against those who would steal funds, goods and services from the public sector.

Ken has presented and spoken publicly at national and local levels on the subject of counter fraud and the need for being honest about fraud, with one of his published articles appearing in the national journal of Alarm (Public Risk Management) “Face up to Fraud”. He organised and ran the very successful Devon Social Housing Fraud project from start to finish resulting in a conservatively estimated return of £1,062,000.00 in non-cashable savings for the initial investment of £200k obtained from the Department for Communities and Local Government.

Having personally undertaken hundreds of criminal fraud investigations and overseen thousands of these cases over the past 12 years, Ken has a long proven record and experience of using a whole range of sanctions including prosecution through the court’s system to resolve frauds against Local Authorities.

Ken and his team provide a professional full investigation service which includes awareness training and support for staff and managers in any organisation that wants to minimise its exposure to the risks associated with fraud.
