Job description
Senior Manager – Transactions Assurance Group


Please note this role can be carried out from any of our UK offices.


Global markets have been thriving, with significant funding to invest in the right business, and the opportunity to support our clients has never been greater. In our Audit and Assurance business this includes Reporting Accountant roles, Special Purpose Audits, and many other bespoke Assurance projects.



To support this growth we have a fantastic opportunity for Senior Managers to join our Transactions Assurance team and work with companies on the audit and assurance requirements of both UK and US initial public offerings, and with a wide variety of project based assurance and accounting topics, including carve out transactions, acquisitions and opening balance sheet audits and complex private equity transactions.



They will be responsible for managing these assurance engagements, working alongside our Capital Markets and Due Diligence teams where relevant.


Experience with either US auditing (PCAOB) and accounting standards or UK Reporting Accountant engagements would be valuable, but training will be provided to support with the relevant accreditations needed for these engagements.


You will work in teams delivering either financial statement audit; technology audit; audit related data, analytics and tools; independent assurance over other info such as regulatory/ESG/internal controls; learning and development; quality/risk/knowledge management; and/or specialist, technical accounting advice (non-audited entities only).


Significant time may be spent at client sites/KPMG offices, however, we appreciate that everybody has their own unique circumstances and we will do our best to accommodate yours, creating a schedule that works for you. Transaction based work will have natural peaks and troughs, both demanding and giving flexibility to our teams to balance the needs of our clients with a work-life balance.


Our Intelligent Working scheme covers a variety of flexible working options, including part time working, working from home part time, or unpaid leave arrangements. Many members of our team currently make use of our flexible working policy. Follow the link below to find out more about how this works for them, but also how you could benefit from it too: Read more
