Job Description
At KPMG, you’ll join a team of diverse and dedicated problem solvers, connected by a common cause: turning insight into opportunity for clients and communities around the world.
The opportunity:
With one of the largest teams of accredited business valuators in Canada, KPMG is a respected leader in the provision of valuations and fairness opinions. KPMG clients receive the attention of dedicated senior valuation professionals who remain actively involved in all aspects of the engagement.
Valuations are often subject to third-party scrutiny. KPMG professionals monitor the changing laws and sensitivities of regulators, standard-setting bodies, taxing authorities, and the courts. We adopt an anticipatory mindset to help ensure that contentious issues and potential objections are recognized and addressed prior to issuing our report.
Our valuation approach is rigorous. We invest the time required to understand the subject business, consulting with professionals from KPMG International’s global network as necessary. We combine our theoretical knowledge of sophisticated financial techniques with our practical understanding of capital markets. We excel when faced with complex and unusual issues. Our conclusions are well supported and our reports clear and concise. We always strive to deliver on time.
What you will do
- Document review.
- Financial analysis.
- Preparing tables and graphs.
- Industry and economic research.
- Report writing and editing.
- Financial model building and review.
- General file management.

What you bring to the role
- A minimum of 2-5 years’ of work experience in the area of accounting and/or finance.
- Ability to perform complex formulas in Excel.
- Excellent analytical and writing skills.
- Strong attention to detail.
- Enrolled, or willing to enroll in the CBV program with a view to obtaining their CBV designation.

- Experience working in a regional or national accounting practice.
