The role

As a manager within the Public Sector team, you work on complex strategic assignments for ministries, executive organizations, and other public institutions. You help clients with issues regarding their direction and future-proofing, develop future-oriented strategies, and explore scenarios to substantiate important choices for the future.

With your strategic insight and strong analytical foundation, you bring structure to complex societal issues. You translate data, financial insights, and analyses into scenarios, business cases, financial projections, and clear perspectives for action, so that boards, executive teams, and management teams can make substantiated choices regarding investments, priorities, organizational development, and public value.

The public sector faces major societal and administrative challenges. Think of recovery tasks, mobility and infrastructure issues, the energy transition, livelihood security, and the ongoing challenge of making policy implementable, affordable, and socially effective.

Within the Public Sector team at KPMG, you will work together with nearly 50 driven colleagues from diverse backgrounds. You will join an ambitious and growing team working on some of the most complex organizational issues within the public sector. Together, we support public organizations with issues that have a direct impact on society.

What you'll do

  • Leading strategic assignments within the public sector.
  • Developing strategies, multi-year plans, and strategy trajectories for public organizations.
  • Performing impact analyses and social value analyses.
  • Drafting, reviewing, and further developing business cases for investment, policy, and implementation issues.
  • Elaborating financial analyses, scenario analyses, and financial models to support decision-making.
  • Performing or supervising social cost-benefit analyses (SCBAs).
  • Translating data, financial insights, and policy research into clear advice, reports, and presentations.
  • Managing project teams and supervising consultants and senior consultants.

In addition to your work for clients, you contribute to building the team. You take the lead in tender processes, develop propositions around public sector strategy, and coach consultants and senior consultants. As a manager, you safeguard the quality of analyses, reports, presentations, and client meetings.
