Senior Manager - CS&P - Global Business Services
About the role
Advisory brings together specialists who help organisations address complex challenges, improve performance and deliver sustainable change. Working across sectors and alongside colleagues from across KPMG, our teams combine business, technology and industry expertise to develop practical, future-focused solutions.
Within the Global Business Services (GBS) consulting team, you will help clients improve the value, agility, productivity and customer experience of their business services. You will lead work across GBS strategy, business cases, target operating models, transition, implementation, optimisation and Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) advisory.
A central part of the role is developing and delivering KPMG’s Agentic GBS proposition. You will help clients use artificial intelligence agents, intelligent automation, digital workforce capabilities and advanced analytics to create effective next-generation operating models. You will also contribute to the growth of the practice through client development, thought leadership, proposition development and team leadership.
The role involves regular travel to client sites, collaboration with KPMG teams in the UK and internationally, and support for multi-country transformation programmes.
