2 months ago


Birmingham, United Kingdom KPMG Full time

**Job details**:
**Location**:Birmingham, Leeds, London, Manchester

**Capability**:Deal Advisory

**Experience Level**:Junior Professional

**Type**:Full Time

**Service Line**:IAG

**Contract type**:Permanent

**Job description**:

- The Infrastructure and Government Strategic Advisory Services (SAS) team works with government and industry on the biggest, most complex and pressing strategic, policy and programme implementation issues.
- As part of a fast paced and dynamic group, practitioners will have the opportunity to advise on strategic options, business cases and operating models to public sector, agency and corporate clients.
- Typically the advice we provide can be categorised as:
- Market Assessment (e.g. market, policy or technology trends, market capability and capacity)
- Business Strategy (e.g. vision, objectives, strategic options, financial sustainability)
- Operating Strategy (e.g. operating model design, governance and structures, incentives)
- Market Making (e.g. complex business cases, market engagement, procurement strategy)

Within SAS is the Future Mobility team, which this role sits within. We define Future Mobility as the de-carbonisation, digitalisation, and disruption of transport through zero emission and low carbon drivetrains, intelligent transport systems, and market reform. The resultant ‘perfect storm’ is impacting automotive, supply chain, energy, technology, infrastructure, funds, transport operators, local and regional authorities and Government. Things are changing faster than expected driven by rapid developments in technology, regulation, competition and consumer behaviour. Over the next 5 to 12 years the organisations that we work with will require significant advisory support: multi £m transformations, multi £m deals, customer and industry 4.0 advice, strategic roadmap development and portfolio delivery. KPMG is working at the forefront of this change, advising organisations across the value chain, from government to component suppliers, helping deliver significant benefits for transport systems and society.
- It is an exciting time to join our team as we continue to grow in response to market demand, and work on some of the industry’s most complex mandates - including bus and rail market reform, zero emission logistics, whole life carbon reduction, Mobility as a Service and the world’s largest ticketing & fare collection schemes, and tackling transport accessibility.
- Description of role
- To be an effective Consultant within the team, applicants will be expected to:
- Consistently prepare high quality client deliverables and proposals
- Actively develop their own knowledge and expertise in chosen proposition(s) and sector of choice
- Proactively develop thought leadership
- Identify opportunities for the firm to support clients, and communicate these to leadership
- Develop proposals, including technical and commercial offerings
- Develop peers
- Be present in the market in the Transport and Mobility markets

Leadership & Management:

- Most project work is undertaken in engagement specific, multidisciplinary teams drawn from across KPMG. As such, appreciating and managing management responsibilities and reporting lines, which change over time, is critical.
- A Consultant would be expected to:
- Be proactive in taking ownership of tasks, pre-empting issues and being accountable for delivering excellent results
- Be an active participant in the SAS team, and identify, design and deliver critical and complex practice development initiatives, coordinating other members of the team
- Inspire, motivate, coach and develop fellow project team members, and give constructive upwards feedback

Stakeholder Interaction & challenges:

- A Consultant would be expected to:
- Be able to confidently contribute to panels and discussions, advancing KPMG’s reputation in the market
- Start to develop client relationships and be trusted by clients for high quality, impactful delivery
- Engage with other teams and functions across KPMG to understand the firm’s wider suite of offerings and develop a peer network
- Work in multidisciplinary teams and learn how the firm’s service lines interact to provide an integrated solution for its clients
- Proactively manage upwards communication with managers
- Take on roles, projects and practice development opportunities for the SAS team or the wider Infrastructure Advisory Group

Impact, Risk, Accountability & Governance:

- Deliver projects in accordance with instructions and the agreed deliver strategy, with mínimal oversight
- Be focused on delivering outcomes and value to clients at all time
- Identify areas of challenge and/or uncertainty, and proactively communicate these to managers
- Take responsibility for maintaining engagement documentation and risk and issue management (supported by the relevant teams within the firm), including escalation to Engagement Managers and Leaders
- Have responsibility for delivering against
