Deal Advisory - Empowered Vacation Scheme

Deal Advisory is a fast-moving area of our business. A career in Deal Advisory involves helping our clients to buy, sell, fund, fix and partner with confidence throughout the whole deal cycle, from buying a business to turning their business around in times of difficulty. You could find yourself working on a variety of projects, with our clients from the UK and overseas – no two projects are the same. We apply deep technical knowledge and industry experience to a broad mix of complex transaction and business issues.

Our four-week Deal Advisory vacation programme is your chance to gain experience on real time, KPMG projects. It’s your opportunity to learn new skills, enhance your CV, contribute to high profile assignments and build your personal and professional network, all whilst getting your foot in the door of one of the world’s leading professional services firms. Most importantly, you have the potential to gain an offer to join the following year’s Deal Advisory graduate intake in the location in which you spend your vacation placement.

Deal Advisory is a fast-paced environment and you’ll face plenty of new challenges, whilst being supported by a buddy and a manager to make you feel at home from day one. You will need to demonstrate a strong analytical mind-set, good commercial awareness and the ability to thrive under pressure. As the vacation programme isn't that long, your focus will be to ensure you make every second count.
