At KPMG, you start your career with plenty of variety and substantive challenges. One day you are working on the preparation of client engagements, the next day you are fully engaged in execution and completion. You analyze the financial situation of organizations and know how to present your insights clearly and convincingly.

In this way, you develop not only a broad perspective but also strong communication skills. You learn to switch gears quickly, work together with different teams, and visit new clients on a weekly basis. That dynamism makes the work particularly educational and motivating for many starters.

Working in the south of the Netherlands
In the south of the Netherlands, KPMG also offers plenty of opportunities to start your career in Audit. You can work at one of our four offices: Eindhoven, Maastricht, Arnhem, and Breda. Eindhoven is the largest office in the region, while Breda distinguishes itself with a beautiful monumental building. All locations are easily accessible and offer a pleasant workplace.

The offices in Eindhoven, Breda, and Arnhem are located in the heart of the city, making it easy to head into town after work for a drink, dinner, or another fun activity.

Alongside substantive challenges, there is plenty of room for relaxation. Think of social drinks, team outings, and other activities that ensure a good balance between work and fun. At KPMG, we believe that work can and should be fun.
