Shape the Future of Governance. Empower Australia’s Leading Organisations.
Step into a career where your insights drive real change. As a Senior Consultant in our dynamic Governance, Regulation & Assurance (GRA) team, you’ll be at the forefront of helping financial services organisations including superannuation to strengthen governance, risk and compliance outcomes in a rapidly evolving regulatory environment. You’ll work with APRA- and ASIC-regulated entities, advising Boards, Audit & Risk Committees and senior executives on how to build trust, manage risk and unlock performance.
This is more than a technical role - it’s a chance to be a strategic partner, a trusted advisor, and a catalyst for transformation.
The Opportunity
Based in Melbourne, you’ll lead and deliver high-impact engagements for financial services clients across internal audit, risk and controls, compliance and risk advisory. You’ll work closely with senior stakeholders to help teams navigate regulatory expectations and embed practical, sustainable risk and compliance practices.
Your day-to-day will include:
Driving transformation: Assess and uplift governance, risk, and control frameworks, policies and processes.
Solving complex problems: Use KPMG’s global tools and insights to tackle your clients’ most pressing challenges.
Building trust: Deliver clear, compelling reports and facilitate conversations that shape strategic decisions.
Leading with purpose: Mentor junior team members and foster a culture of excellence and inclusion.
Creating opportunity: Build strong relationships and identify new ways to add value to clients.
