The Programme

The Financial Services Academy is a two year programme which offers successful applicants an opportunity to build an exciting career within KPMG. You could be working as an Analyst on a Remediation programme, or on other client projects such as Know Your Customer, and you will play a key role in helping our clients meet Regulatory expectations and ensuring that their customers receive good outcomes. You'll receive on the job training, support and development opportunities, whilst undertaking a formal relevant qualification.

Conduct and Remediation forms a huge part of what we do, and following your initial training you'll join one of our live client projects. Our engagements can vary in size and scope - you could be part of a team of 10 up to 650 colleagues working on a project at any one time. As the nature of our operations is fast paced and target driven, we are looking for individuals who thrive under pressure and enjoy a challenge! Upon completion of your first two years, you will have the opportunity to continue growing your career in KPMG.

Your Role

Your role within the Financial Services Academy will be primarily focused on putting things right for our clients and their customers. This could involve being part of a Remediation programme where you would conduct file reviews, engaging directly with customers to understand their personal experience and impacts, investigating complaints in line with our client's policy or conducting a periodic review in line with client policy to fulfil Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements. You will have the opportunity to work on a variety of projects alongside experienced Managers and Analysts as you learn and develop your skills and knowledge. Our Academy career path offers the opportunity to study and gain qualifications whilst building up great experience along the way. You will obtain at least two qualifications within your first two years: a Certificate in Financial Services from the Chartered Insurance Institute to provide you with a broad knowledge base, followed by one or more modules in some of the following areas: Fraud investigation, mortgage remediation and financial planning.

Our Financial Services Analysts are inquisitive with a strong attention to detail; keen to investigate cases and deliver not only good customer outcomes, but a great customer experience. Joining our Academy will give you the opportunity to work directly with some of the largest Financial Services institutions.
