Kick Start Your Career
The KPMG Graduate Program is your first step towards shaping a career full of meaningful work and joining in our commitment to support our clients’ growth in a way that not only enhances our nation’s economic prosperity, but builds trust while benefiting society, people and the environment. Because how you grow matters.
It's with this common purpose you could join the KPMG team to help companies plan sustainable pathways to growth.
We foster a diverse, inclusive and forward-thinking culture, with our people devoting their time and skills to help Australia grow and prosper.
The Graduate Opportunity
Our Graduate Program offers you plenty of opportunities to further your professional and personal development. From working overseas, networking with our global businesses and further learning possibilities. You’ll be supported and encouraged to explore new skillsets as you work on a range of challenging problems with some of the most exciting companies in Australia. Through our Graduate Learning Pathway you’ll be assigned a mentor who will give you all the guidance you need to grow your professionally and personally.
About You
Attitude is every bit as important as ability at KPMG. Being a team player, having passion for what you do and a desire to continuously improve will take you far. We draw strength from our differences and welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds and degree disciplines. We know that if you love to learn and genuinely want to make an impact – you'll feel right at home from day one.
About Us
At KPMG Australia, we help our clients not just grow, but grow meaningfully – consciously, collaboratively, transparently and empathetically. It’s our deep belief that how you grow matters.
Our people are focused on creating a dynamic environment that embraces differences. We value the variety of unique experiences, qualities and characteristics our people possess, and we share and learn from each other.
The way we grow is through our values.
- Integrity: what we do is right.
- Together: we respect each other and draw strength from our differences.
- Courage: we think and act boldly.
- Excellence: we never stop learning.
- For Better: what we do matters.
We live these values through everything we do, and specifically through specialist programs created to highlight the fact that we walk the talk, including:
- Pride@KPMG – a network for employees of all sexual orientations and gender identities.
- Jawun – a not-for-profit that works with Indigenous communities which our people have the opportunity to work with.
- Bird-Walton Program – a program designed to empower high potential women.
We are proud to be consistently recognised as an employer of choice for women, and for our achievements in LGBT+ workplace inclusion.

Pros and cons of working at KPMG Australia
Pros
Lots of other grads so plenty of social opportunities with people your age.
The flexibility of work-from-home vs in-office is terrific.
The team I have joined have been very welcoming, and the expectations are very reasonable.
Good on-the-job learning and exposure to a variety of clients.
The experience provided and the reputation of the firm's talent in the external market.
Cons
There is an underlying trend of long work days from all levels of the firm.
You are dependent on the market swings; you can go a few weeks or months without meaningful work or be extremely busy.
Promotion appears to be locked in to tenure, i.e. one year, two years, not based on performance or knowledge.
Virtual Graduate Program learning is unengaging.
