Job description

The world of tax is rapidly evolving to keep pace with technological innovations and increased regulation whilst governments globally are seeking to drive greater tax transparency and use tax as an incentive to achieve environmental and social targets. If you join us in Tax at KPMG your job will be to understand these developments and advise clients of new risks and opportunities.

Our Tax practice collaborates with all kinds of organisations and businesses of different sizes, across a wide range of specialisms – from International Tax and Deal Advisory Tax through to Transfer Pricing and Indirect Taxes. We advise on all aspects of employee reward and support high-net-worth individuals and entrepreneurial families too.

With such a wide-ranging remit, Tax offers you the opportunity to work on a variety of challenging and high-profile projects whilst building a career that could take many different routes. You will tackle challenges at the heart of client organisations and develop a broad understanding of how businesses operate, whilst you develop valuable technical skills and professional qualifications.

Join us on this programme as a Tax Apprentice and you’ll be part of a team that works collaboratively with clients, helping them to navigate complex tax policy landscapes, and stay compliant with regulation by paying the right tax at the right time. Throughout the programme, you will benefit from learning every day, having the resources and support that you need to thrive with us, develop valuable technical skills and to reach your full potential, working alongside some of the brightest minds in business.

On this programme you'll study for an AAT Level 3 qualification initially and then move to study for the ACA (or CA equivalent in Scotland) providing you with structured learning through a blend of innovative online, and in person study.

Our firm’s hybrid working model balances the flexibility of working from home with the importance of collaborating and learning in offices or at client sites. We trust our people to be where our clients need them to be, with our client-facing colleagues working together in person as often as needed. You’ll be empowered by the technology that supports us to work flexibly across our collaborative office spaces, building friendships and shared experiences, innovating and learning together.

Join our KPMG community, and we’ll empower you to learn, grow, thrive and do work that matters.

The training and development of our people is critical to the future success of our business. We want all our Apprentices to embrace a growth mindset of learning every day, which is why we have created a rich curriculum and learning community to help trainees build their skills and fulfil their potential. This ranges from an immersive induction experience through to formal training courses, leadership knowledge bites, learning journals, online courses and networking events – all aligned to our life-long learning strategy and part of our overall student package.

In addition, as part of your KPMG Tax Apprenticeship you will complete the AAT Level 3 and 4 plus the Level 7 ACA / CA Professional Qualification.

At AAT Level 3, you build a strong understanding of how to execute a range of financial activities to a high standard, while at Level 4, you learn how to apply your role in a business framework. You’re given an understanding of the systems and processes used, as well as standard accounting and tax practices. The Level 7 allows you to become technically qualified by passing exams and develops your understanding of financial reporting standards, financial analysis and strategy.

The KPMG Tax Apprenticeship uses innovative technology and is delivered via a blend of Online Classroom Live and Recorded courses plus in-centre classroom courses. This blended approach enables you to study and learn the content at a pace suited to your learning style. The structure of the AAT specific element of the programme spreads the AAT over two years of your training agreement so that you are able to build up your technical knowledge and can continuously apply what you are learning in training to your workplace experience. Then when you move onto your Level 7 qualification you will join either an ACA route or the CA route.

Regardless of programme, like your Level 4, your Level 7 programme uses innovative technology and is delivered via a blend of online and in-centre classroom courses. Both programmes are supported by a wide range of mechanisms that will be applied by your tuition provider (BPP / ICAS) and KPMG’s dedicated Early Careers Development team.
