Job Summary

KPMG Audit Technology is building a world-class product organisation. We are looking for a visionary, business-outcome-focused leader to establish and run our new Business Solution & Service Design function. This is a critical team that will ensure we build a cohesive, user-centric, and rationalised product portfolio, transforming our technology landscape from a collection of fragmented, siloed applications into a service-oriented ecosystem designed around value streams.

The Director, Business Solution & Service Design is the senior Product counterpart to the technical architecture team within Engineering. This role is responsible for shaping and leading strategic business initiatives through a business capability, value stream, and user-experience lens. While highly technically literate, this role is decisively business-outcome focused. You will act as the primary bridge, ensuring that business capabilities, operational workflows, and logical data needs are clearly defined, mapped, and translated into logical blueprints that Engineering's technical architects can seamlessly execute.

The ideal candidate will champion robust service design principles, drive application rationalisation based on business utility, and ensure our product roadmap is optimised to deliver seamless end-to-end user journeys. Professional Services experience, and preferably knowledge of Audit within the Big 4, is essential.
