The Role

We’re looking for an experienced Head of AI to join the Audit technology team.

The individual in this role will be instrumental in transforming the audit function by leveraging AI technologies to streamline processes, enhance audit quality and provide valuable insights.

The individual will report to the Head of Analytics & AI.

We are looking to recruit a senior individual to improve our technology resilience and recovery capabilities across the UK firm, including those supporting Cloud and on-prem infrastructure, applications and data. You will build and lead our Resilience & Recovery team, creating risk-based resilience and recovery strategies, plans and roadmaps for our technology; create and maintain failure scenarios to guide invocation and recovery across multiple teams; and periodically test recovery plans, ensuring that recovery targets, including Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs), can be met. This is a vital role that will help KPMG to identify, mitigate and manage significant risks in our technology estate.

KPMG’s Major Projects Advisory (MPA) team works with some of the world’s most demanding organisations, helping to crack some of the biggest challenges in Infrastructure.

We are looking for high performing individuals with relevant experience in project and programme management and controls who seek an exciting long-term career in our team. Your experience to date could be from within any of our target sectors above. And, although we are primarily focussed on these sectors within the UK, we also recognise the opportunity of experience and insights from other countries and regions, especially the Middle East. 

As an Associate Director, you will play a pivotal role in leading both the delivery of work on the ground and the development of new opportunities for KPMG, maintaining insights and perspectives on how our markets are changing and how our capabilities align. You will own many critical relationships and operate as a trusted advisor to senior clients, helping to shape solutions, inform decisions and drive implementation.

It is a highly accountable leadership role that requires you to wear many hats, but you’ll be well supported by the rest of us.
