Shadow Consultancy Services Limited was established by principal Jim Fitzsimmons as a limited company in the UK in 2003. Jim is an ex-senior UK detective specialising in the investigation of serious and organized crime within UK and Europe. 

 

A significant period of his 25 years service in the UK police was served as an accredited diplomat based in Brussels as part of the global team of law enforcement specialists working together to combat international organized crime. Jim retired from the UK police in 2000 and began working in the corporate sector.

 

Shadow does not generally market its services and most assignments come from referrals.
