KPMG 2025 Accounting Advisory and Assurance Graduate Programme - London

In Accounting Advisory you'll help businesses with a variety of complex accounting challenges, such as the preparation of financial statements, mergers and acquisitions or the implementation of new accounting standards.

In ESG Assurance, you'll help organisations meet the growing demand for clear and transparent disclosure of their ESG commitments to regulators, investors and the public. Reporting standards are changing rapidly and you'll play an important role in examining a variety of data points such as greenhouse gas emissions, waste, human rights, diversity and many other non-financial metrics.

If you join our Controls Assurance team, you'll assess how well our clients operate their business processes, helping them to become aware of potential risks and build customer confidence. You could be reviewing technology processes, cyber resilience or operational processes such as investment management across a variety of industries.

On this programme, you'll have structured development opportunities and the chance to work closely with other KPMG teams including Financial and Technology Audit, Transaction Services, Consulting, Corporate Finance and Tax. You'll develop valuable skills, commercial understanding, and in-depth business knowledge, all of which will empower you to build an exciting and varied long-term career.
