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'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.

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.
