Why choose Engineering areas as a grad?

Smooth-running infrastructure projects are good for business and good for the community – you can be part of delivering some of Australia’s biggest and best. Engineering graduates help clients plan, deliver, track, and maintain large-scale infrastructure projects, from sports stadiums to railways, often working as part of cross-functional teams. If you’re good at seeing both the big picture of a project’s aim as well as the smaller moving parts, use your degree to start something big with us.

Choose your pathway

Everyone’s career is different, and we support unique growth and pathways. With a range of disciplines and specialties, you can start in one place and go almost anywhere as you build your career here.

Apply to this Business, Consulting, and Risk pathway and you’ll have the option to select the stream of work you’re interested in Not sure or open to something new? No preference means we’ll match you where your degree and interests fit. 

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

What is being a consultant?

You’ll be part of a team of experienced and early-career professionals who work on solving problems. The client (they could be an international company, a local charity, or a small business) brings us a challenge and we create a team and a plan to help solve it. That team will be made up of colleagues from several disciplines and backgrounds so we bring the best ideas to the table – there might be civil engineers working alongside an environmental specialist and change and communications professionals. 

The work depends on the client and the problem you’re helping them solve. You might be researching and gathering information, like how have we helped another client with a similar challenge and how new technologies could help, updating project plans, developing a maintenance schedule, or coordinating a project management office.
