    Job description

    The Team


    The Deal Execution team is part of KPMG's rapidly expanding Strategy Group, which delivers value for clients by challenging conventional thinking, bringing deep industry and functional insights and executing with investor-grade rigour.

    We are a diverse team of over 150 practitioners, working collaboratively with and orchestrating KPMG's broad set of capabilities within our Deal Advisory business.


    Our Strategy and Performance Transformation team works closely with c-suite and senior executives to identify and execute transformation opportunities that add and protect value for shareholders, employees and society.

    As the world continues to face unprecedented levels of change through digitalisation, regulation and post-COVID 'normalisation', we have experienced remarkable market demand for our core services of i) Enterprise-wide Transformation; ii) Performance Improvement and; iii) Growth Strategy.

    We are now accelerating our mission to create value, by turning ambitions into reality, through executing sustainable, fair and profitable business strategies, at pace.


    Our three key client proposition areas are:
    Due diligence: Highlighting key risks and opportunities in the target's technology environment in order to ensure that acquirers are aware of key issues that may impact valuation.

    Integration: Planning pre and post deal to support the client to integrate the technology function and systems into the buyer's organisation while enhancing value.

    Separation: Supporting vendors to plan and deliver a credible, discrete standalone entity on Day 1 to the buyer with value preserved and business continuity ensured from a technology perspective including support to define and implement transitional service agreements.

    The Role

    KPMG's Deal Execution practice is looking for exceptional candidates for an Assistant Manager role
