Risk Graduate Program

Canberra, ACT, Australia University Engineers' Club Full time

Why choose Risk areas as a grad?

Balancing risk and reward is a fine art. It's not just about identifying risks, but also innovative solutions. It's being compliant but also competitive. Graduate roles in risk are an opportunity to help organisations plan for and tackle what's around the next corner, and the one after that too. You could be digging into model data to predict event likelihood, identifying measures to keep vulnerable people safe, or investigating opportunities to maximise investments in governance technology.

Location of this job: nominate your KPMG office location during the application process.

About rolling intake: We run two rounds of recruitment: main intake (now closed) and rolling intake. We aim to fill as many of our roles as possible through the main intake but, of course, things change and new roles come up. Applying to the rolling intake means your application will be reviewed as a suitable role comes up (and it does happen).

What your day as a KPMG graduate could look like

You'll be part of a team of both experienced and early-career professionals who work on solving problems. The client (they could be an international company, a local charity, a small business) brings us a challenge and we create a team and a plan to help solve it.

The work depends on the client and the problem you're helping them solve. You might be researching and gathering information, such as how we have helped another client with a similar challenge, updating project plans, identifying cybersecurity and other information risks, as well as the delivery of solutions your clients selects, such as implementing our AI-driven compliance solution, KymCompliance.

About the graduate program

  • For students in their final year of study in 2025 or recently graduated and not yet in professional work
  • A one year grow pathway with targeted coaching, support and development as you grow your new career
  • Real work from the start so you can make an impact and learn straightaway
  • Start work in February 2026 (typically, some teams have a slightly different schedule) with a full time and ongoing graduate role.

What grads say

My managers have had clear conversations with me about what the expectations are to be able to progress, like cementing a certain skill and that guidance has led me to where I am today. (Michaela, 2015 vacationer now Manager)

Whether it's a client or other people around the office, I enjoy getting to know other people from all walks of life. (Tim, 2023 grad)

From day one I've been involved in real client work alongside a wonderful and friendly team who are more than happy to share their knowledge base and expertise with me. (Emily, 2024 graduate)

It's been such a caring environment, and no matter how junior or senior someone is, they are always willing to help you out. (Jordan, 2024 graduate)

Learning about the workings of the world and having the tools and skills to develop viable solutions for all sorts of problems is why I love my job. (Kanwal, 2023 grad)

I already get to work directly with company CFOs and management to help with accounting practices. (Andrew, 2023 grad)
