The UK Company Secretarial and Global Entity Management (GEM) business sits within KPMG Law. Its ambition is to be a market-leading, technology-enabled governance and entity management business, supporting UK and multinational organisations with governance advisory services and globally co-ordinated entity management.

The business has a significant growth opportunity.

KPMG combines qualified governance expertise, a global network, a central GEM Hub and Digital Gateway to address these needs through advisory and managed services.

There are three pillars to the UK Company Secretarial and GEM practice:

• UK Entity Management – compliance and ad hoc support for UK entities, operated as a UK managed service.
• Global Entity Management – multi-jurisdictional compliance and ad hoc support for an international portfolio of entities.
• Governance Advisory Services – providing clients with corporate governance and board support services, including directors’ duties advice and training.

This Director (A Grade) role will take a role in supporting the overall build and growth of the UK Company Secretarial and GEM practice, with explicit accountability for revenue growth targets, market strategy and proposition ownership. Build senior client and internal relationships; lead complex pursuits and convert client needs into scalable, profitable solutions.
