As a Manager, you will liaise directly with your clients responding to a range of technical queries, drawing both on your own expertise and identifying when additional input is required from more senior colleagues. You will lead teams and supervise the work of junior staff. You will also have performance management responsibilities for a small number of employees.

In the Finance Transformation team, we improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the finance function and generate real insights to help deliver value to the business. Our mission statement is to help our clients create and evolve a digitally enabled, human centric, and integrated finance function.

Our Financial Transformation practice is a priority area for significant and strategic growth. We work with leading public sector clients, focusing on understanding the core issues and opportunities to deliver value-adding change across their finance functions. The key drivers of change for our clients are: technology implementations, an ambition to be more efficient and effective, and a desire to progress along the maturity curve.

We are a team of problem solvers with extensive consulting and industry experience, working together with technology focussed professionals to deliver KPMG Powered Enterprise though a standardised delivery model, which drives professional delivery to clients.

At KPMG, our Values define who we are and the way we do business. As a leading professional services firm, we know that our strength and capability come from our people: their different perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds.

Deal sizes can be anywhere from £10m to +£10bn – we work with a variety of clients and on a variety of deals.

We help our clients understand and quantify historical tax issues, structure transactions, model tax considerations and reflect our advice in the legal documents underpinning each transaction, all with a continuous focus on maximising value throughout the investment cycle.
