KPMG in the UK is part of a global organisation of independent firms that offers Audit, Consulting, Tax & Law and Technology services. Through the talent of over 16,000 people, we turn insights into opportunities, making a positive difference for businesses, people and communities. What is Audit at KPMG? Some of the world's biggest companies and organisations turn to KPMG's Audit practice for the insight, challenge and expertise we're able to provide. By examining the way in which they're operating - and delivering a true and fair reflection of their financial position through published accounts - we make a difference not just to the business itself, but also to the wider community. Audit is about more than simply meeting legal requirements. It helps organisations to operate more efficiently and mitigate financial risks. In a broader sense, it also plays a role in building public trust in businesses and supports the delivery of sustainable growth. Audit Graduate Programme Audit offers diversity and complexity. In your role as a graduate trainee, you'll learn about a wide range of business activities, as you work on engagements. You'll also see the auditing process from different perspectives, providing you with skills and learning that will last a lifetime. You'll play a direct role in critically assessing information provided by organisations, supported by your senior leaders, engagement leader, peers, and the broader Audit community. This is a role that calls for integrity, professional scepticism, objectivity, independence, and a strong ethical foundation. Over three years you'll combine audit delivery and study to work towards a professional qualification - the ACA, or CA equivalent in Scotland. Your programme might see you working in a specific industry sector or across a variety of industries, depending on the office you join. After completing your qualification, the learning and career opportunities continue. You can take the valuable technical skills, broad commercial understanding and in-depth knowledge of one or more industry sectors, to continue building an exciting and varied long-term career. Training and Benefits Over the three-year programme you'll combine audit delivery and study towards a professional qualification - the ACA, of CA equivalent in Scotland. We offer a competitive salary and a host of great benefits, including 25 days' holiday, study leave and a day off on your birthday. What's more, each year you can take up to six days of time off to take part in volunteering initiatives. Our firm's hybrid working model balances the flexibility of working from home with the importance of collaborating and learning in our offices or at the sites of the organisations we audit. We trust our people to be where they need to be, with our colleagues working together in person as often as needed. You'll be empowered by the technology that supports us to work flexibly across our collaborative office spaces. Some travel is likely for audit work, and because its seasonal, you should expect there to be busy times of the year. Seeing the whole picture As part of the Audit team, you will be building friendships and shared experiences, innovating, and learning together. KPMG is a place where you can be yourself and give your best - whoever you are and whatever your background. We look at more than just your academic results and will also consider your strengths, values and motivations. If you're collaborative and good with people, that can be just as important as your ability to pick up key technical skills. See the specific programme page on our Careers Portal for entry requirements and our 'Applying to KPMG' section for detailed application guidance.
