Job description
As a constantly changing and increasingly high-profile field, Tax can offer a surprisingly broad range of career paths to ambitious apprentices. As part of a dynamic and successful area of our business, our Tax teams work with a wide range of organisations and individuals, helping them to implement the tax approaches that best suit their commercial needs within domestic and international legal and regulatory requirements.
Our advice can prove invaluable to our clients. Everyday, in ways big and small, we make a meaningful and positive difference to them. This is partly because complex issues can be open to interpretation, and partly due to the ever-changing legislation that can have major taxation implications for our clients. Our job is to keep up with those developments, advising clients of new risks and opportunities that come up. This is even more important as the need for companies to ‘do the right thing by society’ has shone a light on their tax affairs, whilst governments globally seek to drive greater tax transparency, and use tax as an incentive to help achieve wider environmental and social ambitions.
We offer advice to help our clients to manage the digital transformation impacts to business models prompting significant changes to taxation policy. Across the spectrum of company and personal tax issues we offer holistic advice spanning International tax, Deal Advisory Tax, Transfer Pricing and Indirect Taxes. Our People Services team advise on all aspects of employee reward, as well as managing tax issues arising as result of having a global workforce, whist our Private Client teams support high net worth individuals and entrepreneurial families to manage their tax affairs and preserve their legacies.
With such a wide-ranging remit, Tax can offer the opportunity to be involved in a wide variety of challenging and high-profile projects as part of a stimulating career – and our programme is an excellent foundation for that. Tackling challenges at the heart of client organisations, you’ll develop a broad commercial understanding whilst gaining valuable technical skills and professional qualifications.

In your role, you’ll work flexibly across your location region – at engagement sites, our offices and home.

The training and development of our people is critical to the future success of our business. We want all of 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 5-day induction experience, 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 ATT CTA Professional Qualification.
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, but ensures all are at the right technical level at every stage of the qualification and apprenticeship. The structure of the programme spreads the examinations over the lifetime of the five year 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 through your apprenticeship skills and behaviours and off-the-job (OTJ) training. You will have wrap around support which consists of dedicated professional coaches, online portal content and live and recorded additional study sessions, which means there is a form of support for your every need.
