We recruit across a range of degree disciplines, skills, abilities and backgrounds.

At KPMG, attitude is every bit as important as ability. Being a team player, having passion for what you do and a desire to continuously improve in order to go far. If you love to learn and sincerely want to make an impact, you’ll feel at home from day one.

Independent thinking is essential. We want graduates that can look at a problem from a variety of angles. You’ll need to be prepared to challenge assumptions and bring new perspectives to our clients' businesses.

KPMG is much more than an accounting firm. We provide Audit, Tax and Advisory services across a wide range of industries, government and not-for-profit sectors.

While we are probably best known for the work we do with top-tier clients, we also provide services tailored to meet the unique needs of mid-sized, fast growing and family-owned businesses. We do this through KPMG Private Enterprise where you will get to work with a diverse range of exciting businesses. Because of the size of the clients, you get better exposure to the whole company, Chief Executives included, which you just wouldn’t get with other larger corporates.

We recruit across a range of degree disciplines, skills, abilities and backgrounds. We want diversity, commitment and ambition. We value innovative ideas and we're interested in you and your unique take on the world. Your academic record is just a small part of what we consider.

Below are the Behavioural Capabilities we recruit for:
