The team is diverse and collaborative, with individuals based across London, Manchester, Bristol and Edinburgh,

regulatory backgrounds as well as a number of people who have joined from industry and bring real practical

experience to the way we can help clients. Whatever your background we will give you the support,

encouragement and training to thrive at KPMG.
