Forensic

Our Forensic Graduate programme is designed to build your commercial and business awareness. You’ll help clients across a variety of sectors and services, gaining a wide experience, and helping to make a meaningful difference for the businesses we serve. With the KPMG community at your side, you’ll study towards the Institute of Chartered Accountants qualification (ACA) and be supported to grow in your own way.

You’ll be joining a team that helps clients to protect their businesses by reducing reputational risk and commercial loss. We do this by combining accounting investigation, technology, insight, and industry skills – capabilities that you’ll have the opportunity to develop on your programme. You’ll work with us as we help to diffuse challenging situations through investigations and compliance, fraud risk management, corporate intelligence, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, and dispute advisory services. There’s also potential to gain broader Consulting experience, as your programme might include working with other teams in the wider Enterprise Risk space outside of the core Forensic service line, whilst still being relevant to your ACA qualification.

The Consulting Forensic Graduate programme gives you the opportunity to build skills and experience in one of our specialist areas:

• Investigations and Compliance — This is the largest team within Forensic, often working with clients in sensitive and complex environments to conduct independent investigations. In the Financial Crime Regulatory space we support some of the world’s largest financial institutions to prevent, detect and investigate instances of fraud, misconduct and corruption, to achieve regulatory compliance and bolster financial crime controls across the entire organisation.
• Dispute Advisory Services — The Dispute Advisory Services team helps prevent and resolve commercial disputes by supporting our clients to assess damages and resolve accounting, audit and finance-related issues.
• Economics — Our Economics practice delivers expert advice and analysis for corporates, government bodies and regulatory authorities helping them to make better business and public policy decisions in today’s more complex and faster-paced landscape.
• Infrastructure Government & Health Transport Advisory — This team provides specialist financial, commercial and strategic advice to the transport sector, both public and private sector clients, focusing on the rail and bus markets in the UK and globally. 
• Contract Performance & Insight — Our CP&I team provides contract performance services to help clients get the best from their existing commercial contracts. We use a mix of core consulting, forensic investigation, and technology, to deliver value for clients across a diverse range of industries including Public Sector, Infrastructure, Pharmaceuticals, Oil & Gas and Financial Services.

If you have an eye for detail, good analytical skills and enjoy problem-solving, this could be the programme for you. We’ll support you to thrive and make your mark, while building a meaningful career.

Our firm’s hybrid working model balances the flexibility of working from home with the importance of collaborating and learning in offices or at client sites. We trust our people to be where our clients need them to be, with our client-facing colleagues working together in person as often as needed. You’ll be empowered by the technology that supports us to work flexibly and our collaborative office spaces, building friendships and shared experiences, innovating and learning together.
