KPMG Audit Vacation Programme

Our four-week paid Audit Vacation programme gives you the opportunity to build your professional skills, discover our breadth of career opportunities, and immerse yourself into life at KPMG. 

During the programme, you’ll find out more about the positive difference we make for our clients, people, communities, and the planet. It’s your chance to gain valuable work experience, grow, and build your network. 

You’ll take part in some great community activities and have the opportunity to meet new people too. Above all, you’ll gain experience on real-time, real-life projects, and if successful, potentially secure a graduate offer.  

Training and benefits 

This programme offers the perfect opportunity to find out what it’s like to work for a leading professional services firm whilst gaining valuable practical experience and kick-starting your career. You’ll learn about the world of work, enhance your CV, and start building those all-important professional networks. 

Our firm’s hybrid working model balances the flexibility of working from home with the importance of collaborating and learning in our offices or at the sites of the organisations we audit.  We trust our people to be where they need to be, with our colleagues working together in person as often as needed. You’ll be empowered by the technology that supports us to work flexibly across our collaborative office spaces.
