Job description

The KPMG Business Services Apprenticeship is a two-year programme where you’ll be fully supported with guidance from KPMG teams as well as our external training provider in everything there is to learn about Business Services.

KPMG’s Business Services (KBS) function is the engine room of KPMG. KBS is structured around three groups – Business Partnering (providing strategic support and insight to business leaders), Centres of Expertise (deep specialist expertise and delivery of transformation initiatives) and Operational Excellence Hubs (delivering of services and support that keeps our business running efficiently).

This apprenticeship sits within the Operational Excellence Hubs (OEH). OEH is an innovative, agile and collaborative function that delivers services to support our client-facing colleagues in the delivery of their work. OEH supports the business through a variety of specialist teams, who work collaboratively to support the business to run smoothly – dealing with customer queries, running day-to-day operations, managing records, generating reporting and providing executive assistant and administrative support.

Those joining this programme will be based from our Watford or Birmingham offices, specifically within the Administration Services KPMG (ASK) team and will undertake structured work, activities and project opportunities across our OEH function. This varied experience will provide a unique and exciting opportunity to learn about the breadth of support being provided to enable our colleagues and clients to succeed. On completion of your first foundation year, you will have the opportunity to specialise within an OEH team.

Throughout the apprenticeship, you’ll develop a host of core skills to help you succeed in the workplace. From delivering and working on projects, developing a customer focused mindset and learning how to work as part of a professional team. We’ll make sure you have the support you need to take on new challenges and thrive within a professional workplace environment.  You’ll have the opportunity to understand the work the teams do, build a diverse range of experiences and grow successful networks - whilst working on anything from the recruitment of new talent to the provision of administrative support.

All apprentices will work towards the Level 3 Business Administration Apprenticeship – a recognised qualification that enables the development of core business skills and knowledge; including project management, business regulation and personal development.

The onus is on you to take ownership of your studies and help shape your learning. The programme is delivered by BPP, our chosen specialist Tuition provider via a blend of online learning, recorded courses and face to face workshops where appropriate.
