Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom KPMG-UnitedKingdom Full time
About the Role

KPMG is committed to achieving significant growth ambitions while becoming the most trusted professional services firm. For Audit, this requires a relentless focus on key initiatives that drive Audit Quality and achieve Operational Excellence through standardization, centralization, automation, and innovation.

The establishment of a global delivery model, KPMG Delivery Network for Audit (KDN Audit), will help make significant strides in all these focus areas. We envision a network of global, regional, and specialty-focused delivery centers that provide standardized services (on a cost recovery basis) to engagement teams in all member firms. The potential benefits are plentiful. Audit quality will be increased by the centralized, consistent performance of certain audit procedures. Engagement teams will be able to increase their focus on more complex procedures or on serving more clients. Our multi-national clients will have a more consistent experience around the globe. Most member firms will be able to achieve better margins. Finally, the firm will have a mechanism to help quickly deploy new and emerging solutions (ESG) and audit innovations (audit technology).

Role Summary

KDN for Audit is a critical component of delivering the Global ESG Assurance strategy, and is fundamental to ensuring member firms can scale their assurance practices' in a rapidly changing market. Our vision is that the KDN ESG Assurance team will support every ESG Assurance engagement across the global network with access to market-leading expertise and highly standardized services so they can deliver consistently high-quality results. The CSRD in the EU is expected to create a multi-billion dollar opportunity for KPMG in ESG assurance, but in order to meet demand, we will need a significant amount of capacity and subject matter experience. KDN will be the only way member firms can meet the scale of this challenge, and is a truly transformative opportunity for the firm.

We are seeking a Senior Manager to serve as an assurance subject matter expert to partner with global leaders to build profile, provide credibility for ESG sales pitches, and develop and lead the delivery of assurance services. Through this work, you will have the opportunity to help shape a more sustainable future, as well as work with fantastic colleagues and the brightest minds in KPMG.

Key Responsibilities

To be successful, KDN ESG Assurance aims to amplify existing investments in ESG knowledge, experience, and processes to deliver best-in-class services across the KPMG network. The role therefore focuses on building a framework and solutions that are innovative, purposeful, and fit for adoption across the network. Key activities will include:
  • Representing KPMG and building the assurance brand from an international perspective
  • Supporting and partially managing ESG assurance engagements, including report assurance, readiness services, and other assurance-related activities
  • Building capacity within the member firms through training and knowledge sharing: Enabling member firm teams to work in compliance with the latest legislation and frameworks Ensuring teams are up to date on developments on frameworks and requirements Developing and rolling-out training for sustainability and audit teams
  • Identifying opportunities for KDN process improvement and standardization including: Work paper development and explore ways to make the process more effective Supporting the development of methodology and (standardized) working papers
  • Enabling the successful deployment and adoption of each new service and solution Serving as a champion for the KDN ESG Assurance program Communicating effectively with executive partners to engender support and excitement for the benefits of KDN ESG Assurance while addressing potential roadblocks Helping direct the development of country activation programs to drive adoption and change
Requirements

We are looking for a Senior Manager with significant experience in sustainability assurance or a related field. You will have experience of assurance/audit work and the ability to apply this expertise from this perspective. You will also have knowledge of relevant frameworks and the international regulatory and policy context, specifically knowledge of the CSRD, EU Taxonomy, ISSB, TCFD, GRI, SASB, and other relevant frameworks. A CPA or similar accreditation is preferred. You will have extensive experience applying your knowledge and expertise in a variety of sectors. You will be able to make quick, sound decisions and work in an agile way. Excellent stakeholder and client management skills are required, as well as experience working with offshore teams and/or collaborating on special initiatives. Good interpersonal, presentation, and communication skills are also essential, as well as fluency in English. Additional languages, such as Spanish, Italian, French, and German, would be highly beneficial. Business development experience and team management experience are also required. Finally, you will be willing to travel domestically or internationally (up to 25%) and work flexible hours to accommodate global team schedules.

KDN is Inclusive

Everyone brings a unique perspective. We want to harness diverse thinking by bringing bright minds together and valuing the differences that lead to stronger insights and innovation. At KDN, we recognize that we need Inclusion, Diversity, and Equality to be successful. We want to attract, retain, and develop diverse talent at all levels. This means recruiting from the widest possible pool of talent, removing barriers that can prevent our people from reaching their full potential, and fostering a fully inclusive environment which maximizes collaboration and empowers everyone at KPMG to bring their whole selves to work. We encourage authenticity, honor individual priorities, and respect your choices
