Audit Managers/Senior Managers - Pensions Centre of Excellence
At KPMG in the UK, we continue to transform audit to help unlock value for our clients. We’re leading the debate on the future shape of corporate reporting through our Restoring Trust initiative. And we’re raising the bar for audit quality. How? By leveraging our advanced technology and data analytics to interpret ever-greater quantities of information. By drawing on the natural curiosity and inquisitive minds of our highly-skilled people to provide deeper and more robust client insights.
But technology is meaningless without the talent to drive it. So we’re investing in our extraordinary people like never before. We’re giving them challenges that will fuel their ambitions, digital tools to further enhance the quality of their work and the scope they need to innovate – to help us redefine how audit is delivered.
What you’ll be doing
Pensions Centre of Excellence (PCoE) has been established to standardise the audits of defined benefit pension plans, driving a consistent approach and audit documentation to ensure delivery of high quality audits. Over the next year, the PCoE will assist selected pilot engagements with delivering the pensions audit. These engagements will vary in size to gain in-depth knowledge across a variety of industries which will aid the development of the work deliverables. Within the next two years, the scope will widen to include delivery of the pensions audits for all EU PIE audit clients in the UK.
What we’re looking for
Return to Audit Programme
Do you have any friends, or family, who might be interested in the #KPMGUK Return to Audit Programme? If you have someone in mind, simply share this link (http://bit.ly/2RsZ4af) for them to discover more about this opportunity.
‘Return to Audit’ programme is an initiative designed to attract qualified accounting professionals back into the Audit practice after a period away, either in industry or on a career break. For more information and to register for this programme visit http://bit.ly/2RsZ4af
Why join us
Innovation. Our technologies are already changing the game. KPMG Clara has already allowed us to analyse 111 billion lines of data, supporting teams across KPMG’s global network to work in smarter ways and to use data more effectively. Our investment in innovative audit technology is improving our ability to challenge assumptions and through advanced data and analytics, we’re significantly enhancing audit quality and accuracy.
Support from day one. We expect a lot from you, but you can expect as much in return. From Intelligent Working and Employee Networks to great rewards and benefits, Our Deal sets out all the ways you’ll be recognised for your efforts. We’ll have regular, honest conversations about your career. We’ll also encourage you to develop through secondments. Last year, more than 300 colleagues in Audit took the opportunity to undertake an international secondment.
Diverse perspectives. Diverse challenges demand wide-reaching perspectives. That’s one of the reasons why we’re so passionate about attracting, developing and retaining the best talent from all backgrounds. We’re proud of the value we place on individuality and we’ll empower you to bring your full self to work; to help maximise your true potential.
