KPMG is one of the most trusted and respected global professional services firms. Through depth of expertise, clarity of insight and strength of purpose we help our clients solve complex problems, steer change, strengthen, transition and grow. We are looking for talented people who share our purpose of inspiring confidence and empowering change for our clients, our people and our communities.

The consulting environment at KPMG is dynamic and fast-paced, offering diverse opportunities to work on challenging projects with leading organisations across various industries. As a consultant at KPMG, you will be part of a collaborative team that provides strategic insights and innovative solutions to help clients address complex business issues and drive growth. You will work with experienced professionals who are committed to delivering high-quality services and fostering a culture of continuous learning and professional development.

KPMG has opportunities available at Senior Advisor, Assistant Manager, Manager and Senior Manager for exceptional talent to join our Wellington Management Consulting team.

Step into a role where your expertise makes a real difference to Aotearoa’s public and private sectors. At KPMG, you'll join a highly respected Management Consulting team advising government agencies, corporates, and Māori organisations on their biggest transformation and performance challenges.

This is a unique opportunity for consulting professionals, particularly those with Machinery of Government (MoG) experience, strong programme/project backgrounds, or change management capability to be part of work that shapes national programmes, improves service delivery, and drives measurable impact.

Whether your strengths lie in BBC methodology, operational readiness and transitions, public sector operating model design, large‑scale project delivery, or change, we have pathways for you to thrive.

Lead workstreams and project teams across complex engagements, delivering high-quality insights and recommendations.

Support major transformation programmes with project delivery, including requirements definition, PMO support, or change management expertise.

Apply your MoG knowledge from BBC frameworks to operational delivery, transition, business cases, and operating model design to help clients make evidence‑based decisions.

Contribute to business development through proposal writing, thought leadership, and enhancing KPMG methodologies.

Work confidently at pace across multiple engagements, keeping a sharp eye on detail.

Build KPMG’s reputation through strong judgement, client service excellence, and fresh, innovative thinking.

You’ll bring a mix of skills and experience in either one of the following areas:

Background in MoG with strong familiarity in Better Business Case (BBC) methodology.

MoG operational delivery experience, including operational readiness, transition, operating model design, business case development, or Op Pol‑type responsibilities.

Project/Programme/PMO experience from either the public or private sector.

Change Management capability, ideally across large transformation programmes.

Big 4, general consulting, or strong public sector background aligned to our core service offerings.

You’ll also bring:

Proven consulting experience and the ability to build lasting client relationships.

Strong business development skills and the confidence to identify and grow opportunities.

Demonstrated understanding of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and how to apply its principles in public sector policy, operating model design, and transformation.

Practical experience working with Māori stakeholders, including the ability to integrate Māori perspectives and aspirations into project delivery.

Commitment to growing capability in te ao Māori, tikanga, and te reo through KPMG’s He Kōtui development pathways.

A relevant tertiary qualification.

Experience coaching or mentoring junior team members.

Excellent problem‑solving abilities and a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach.

Outstanding written and verbal communication skills.

A can‑do attitude, drive, and a pragmatic mindset to deliver work that creates tangible value.
