With offices across the UK, we work with everyone from small start-ups and social enterprises to national government bodies and major multinationals, in virtually every industry imaginable. Our work is often complex, yet our vision is simple: to be the clear choice for our clients, for our people and for the communities in which we work.

We are a global expert in infrastructure, government and consulting public sector, with a long track record of working across the UK in local government, central government, policing, transport, healthcare and higher education.

You will bring together KPMG and client capabilities to solve complex problems and deliver ambitious outcomes.

You will be working with senior clients including Programme Directors, Chief Financial officers Chief Operating Officers, SROs, CEOs and Permanent Secretaries, as well as board level executives in our private sector clients. You will also lead, manage and develop KPMG teams, capabilities and propositions, and will be accountable for developing our ability to deliver high quality work for clients as we continue to grow our share of the market. You will help our people to grow and shape their consulting careers across IGH and the wider firm. Joining our successful practice will expose you to work on a range of high-profile assignments helping organisations, politicians, officials, policy-makers and public and private sector leaders address their most challenging issues.
