At KPMG we want to build and maintain positive and constructive relationships individually amongst our people, and collectively between the firm and our people. We believe that a positive climate in the workplace enables greater employee engagement and commitment, with a positive impact both on employee well-being and business outcomes.

Now is a great time to join us and be part of our new expert ER Function firmly anchored around our firm-wide values. The team will be responsible for end-to-end case management and for coaching / upskilling the business to more effectively address ER matters in the business line

We are introducing a best practice tiered approach to service delivery, including self-service for generic questions and effective triaging of incoming concerns promoting routes to resolution outside of formal cases. We have a separate team within the ER function responsible for formal investigations

By firmly anchoring Employee Relations expertise in the ER function, we are professionalising the service and creating tangible and rewarding career opportunities for ER professionals

We are committed to continuous improvement so that we can evolve our Employee Relations (ER) services and support mechanisms to be the best they can be, encouraging open communication, ensuring our colleagues can thrive both professionally and personally and building trust within our organisation. 

The role of the Integration & Dev Ops Enterprise Architect is to develop the UK Firm’s integration & DevOps technology strategy and translate this into a roadmap that determines our investment priorities and transformation portfolio. The integration strategy needs to promote a seamless, end-to-end customer and employee experience by enabling the efficient creation and modification of effective and reusable integration components. In particular, the strategy should promote the use of modern, Cloud-based technologies; Infrastructure as Code (IaC), support typical integration use cases; create an operating model that satisfies the demands of the business for integration design, development, testing and release; and establish an integration catalogue that supports the reuse of new technologies, whilst targeting legacy integrations for decommissioning. The Integration & Dev Ops Enterprise Architect should also help to execute and govern the strategy, by helping solution architects and projects to design solutions that are fit for purpose and conform to our standards and patterns.

Our Transaction Services team collaborate with organisations of all shapes and sizes across a broad range of Mergers and Acquisitions activity. We are an integrated team of specialists helping clients focus on the key questions during the critical stages of planning and executing a deal, creating and enhancing value.
