Job description
Audit is the largest of KPMG UK's practices. Our Audit teams examine organisations and ensure their published accounts provide a 'true and fair' view of their financial position and results. The work we do makes a meaningful difference to businesses and communities. It is critical to the everyday working of society, helps build trust in the economy and supports companies as they grow.
We audit some of the world's biggest companies, including big retailers, UK banks and multinational organisations. These organisations rely on us to provide independent insight, challenge and high-quality audit expertise. Through this work, we're also committed to helping to build sustainable organisations from an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) perspective.
Our four-week Audit Vacation Programme is your chance to gain work experience in a specific audit business area and an insight into life within our diverse and supportive audit community. The programme is designed to help you grow and develop a breadth of professional skills, giving you learning that will last you a lifetime. You'll build your commercial understanding and in-depth knowledge of different sectors and businesses and understand more about the work we do to deliver the highest quality audits.
If you're successful on the programme, you'll have the opportunity to be considered for our Audit Graduate programme in the same office location, starting in 2024.
We're creating a tech-driven business to empower and equip our people to be outstanding in delivery, no matter where they work - through inspiring collaboration spaces and new technologies. On your vacation programme, you may work flexibly across your location region - at engagement sites, our offices and home.
