**Job description**

This is a fascinating time for our clients and our firm. While there are significant challenges, the opportunities to lead and reshape what leading companies look like in the future have never been greater. Clients are placing a premium on the services provided by the advisors they trust. As a global leading professional services firm with over 17,000 staff in the UK alone and a track-record of delivering market-leading solutions, we work collaboratively with our clients to develop strong relationships and become their advisors of choice.
In KPMG’s Management Consulting practice, we don’t limit ourselves to either strategy or implementation. Instead, we deliver both – equally well. Indeed, it’s this broad capability that’s seen us accelerate to become a 1,500+ strong team.
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.

* Taking on performance management responsibilities, contributing to annual talent reviews and supporting career progression
* Acting as a mentor to colleagues within the team and in the wider firm, taking responsibility for cultural improvement and living the KPMG values
Business Development
* Leading the establishment and development of relationships both internally within KPMG and externally with clients, as well as leading business development activity to secure future programmes of work
