Joining KPMG means joining a talented team of exceptional colleagues who bring innovative thoughts and a natural curiosity to the work they do each day. No one type of person succeeds at KPMG; a diverse business requires diverse personalities, characters and perspectives.

SERVICE LINE INFORMATION:

The Team & The Challenge
KPMG UK is embarking on a wide-reaching digital transformation programme across the Firm to revolutionise how it embeds technology and data into all aspects of its business and client services.

Advisory is in the vanguard of that transformation and has established a Advisory Tech team headed by the Advisory CTO to develop and deliver an ambitious portfolio of technology and data enabled transformation spanning multiple projects that will:

• Provide a digital client experience
• Transform the tools our people use
• Creating value from data and insight
• Drive efficiency and operating model change through automation
• Embed the management of risk and compliance in our solutions
• Build tomorrow’s services

Many projects are staffed by resources drawn from across the firm or with external resources. However, Advisory is also building a core team of technologists within Advisory Tech.

Our solutions are focussed in the following areas:

• Data Strategy, Architecture and Governance
• Data Management and Security
• Data Modelling
• Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence
• Data Platforms and Integration
• Data Quality and Integrity
• Reporting and Analytics
• Data Visualisation and Storytelling

We base our solutions around the Microsoft 365 and Azure stack, augmented with additional vendor products as and when required. We work with our clients and other KPMG teams in an open, collaborative manner; we share knowledge; we thrive on challenge; we continually learn; we understand when we collectively succeed, we individually succeed; and we have fun doing it.
