Job description

Our work in Regulatory and Banking Risk is not only interesting and varied, it's also high profile. With the current economic climate and in view of the challenges facing the world today, clients and regulators are focusing ever more closely on risk and regulatory issues. For example we're helping our clients overcome global issues like Climate Risk and the COVID-19 pandemic. 

We help our clients solve business problems by developing tailored and pragmatic solutions. It's become an area of high priority, change and growth within KPMG too. The work we do helps to make Financial Services safer and protect clients and their customers. This is what makes this an endlessly fascinating area for new graduate joiners.

Based in either our Risk or Regulatory team, our 3 year programme gives graduates the chance to build their experience and develop their expertise in risk management across the entire financial sector. Sectors include:

Banking Risk and Regulatory - Banking Risk & Regulatory work involves understanding clients’ issues and providing support, advice and project delivery across their boards, risk functions and finance functions.

Insurance Risk and Regulatory - here we help clients to respond to intervention and change from the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority.

Wealth and Asset Management - KPMG's Wealth and Asset Management Regulatory practice looks after the interests and helps a broad range of clients, from global asset managers with operations in multiple jurisdictions to smaller wealth managers who are predominantly UK focused.

It means being agile and innovative in the way we interact. It means harnessing technology and developing new ways of working, through remote and hybrid forms of working, providing our clients with the advice and support they need. It means embedding virtual solutions for our colleagues, so they continue to benefit from a collaborative working experience.
