What is Tax at KPMG?
Tax is changing quickly, shaped by new technology, increased regulation and greater expectations
around transparency. Governments are also using tax to support environmental and social goals. It
makes this a fast-moving, challenging and exciting area to begin your career.
We help clients understand these developments, navigate complex requirements and stay compliant by
providing timely, accurate advice and information.
Tax Apprenticeship
Our Tax practice works with organisations of all sizes across a wide range of specialisms. From day one,
you’ll work on high-profile projects as part of a collaborative team. You’ll help clients navigate complex tax
policy and regulation, so they can stay compliant and pay the right tax at the right time.
Along the way, you’ll tackle challenges at the heart of their organisations, gain a broad understanding of
how businesses operate and build valuable technical skills. It’s experience that can open up many
different routes for your future career.
