• Regularly interfacing between the Alliance Team (or equivalent) at our Alliance Partners, chairing weekly update meetings and taking decisive action accordingly

• Determine, foster and encourage key relationships - i.e. who from KPMG aligns with the key stakeholders at our Alliance Partner
• Agree how we generate demand in the market together and then, activate as appropriate
• Identify which opportunities / targets we will work on together and then, drive dogmatic activation plans in conjunction with appropriate Advisory colleagues and Alliance Partner Account Executives

• Importantly, the plan needs to underpin how we work together and how we win together
• Ongoing and regular governance of both the plan, and also our successful relationship with the Alliance Partner
• Ongoing and regular updates to senior stakeholders from both KPMG and our Alliance Partner to meet KPIs, as well as monitor progress
• Make introductions as necessary - i.e. respective Sector Leads from both sides; or Industry Leads; or key Client / Account Leads AND monitor and track progress
• Arrange and lead networking opportunities with our Alliance Partners - these might be in the form of targeted lunches, dinners, round table discussions, or Ignition-led seminars.  Follow up on all leads generated via the Alliance Sales Team
• Attend and help to arrange the successful participation on Alliance-led Events - these may be Alliance Partner initiated and may also include overseas travel.  Again, follow up on all leads generated accordingly
• Proactively engage with client and targets, where appropriate, along with the Alliance Sales Team to help promote excellent KPMG relationships and our commitment to working with our Alliance Partners
• Support and lead all contractual arrangements between KPMG and our Alliance Partners to ensure that we maintain excellent Quality and Risk Management (QRM).  This will include agreeing Alliance contracts with our QRM team; continuance contracts on a periodic basis, and any reselling / influencing contracts, as appropriate.
