As auditors, our primary responsibility is to decide whether the annual financial statements of the company under review provide the owners with a true and fair view of the financial position of the company. You can participate in exciting projects and try your hand at real-life client situations right from the very first day.
“At KPMG, we have an open, cohesive community which determines the everyday atmosphere at work, in addition to the benefits of working at a multinational company. People are really helpful, treating everyone as equals, and you can always have a good coffee with someone, even online.”
“I gained so much valuable professional expertise in a year that would take years with other companies. I work together with the management teams at the companies, which has helped me to build up a large network of contacts in a relatively short period of time.”
“I’ve always admired how perfectly everyone can collaborate in audit department as a team. It’s hard to name a specific event, so I’d rather highlight how good it is to experience when everyone from junior auditors to partners work shoulderto-shoulder to provide the best possible solution for our clients.”
At KPMG, you can complete the Hungarian Registered Auditor training course or obtain the international degree ACCA without a study contract.
“I learned to organize my tasks and manage my time due to the diversity of our everyday work, supported by the latest digital platforms. I have to ask, analyse and conclude continuously, which make me prepared to the challenges of our rapidly changing world.”
“I spend most of my time at clients, as a member of a great team, but I can support audit projects from either the office or home. So I can see into different areas and get a lot of close connections.”

As tax advisors, we assist our clients in special tax issues in their operations, help them limit their tax burdens and manage tax-related risks. We become familiar with a number of industries and companies, and work on solving interesting problems every day.
“Before I came to KPMG, a typical multinational company just made me think of working overtime with managers who can never be reached. At KPMG, I can always count on my team members in the biggest projects and I can approach my superiors and colleagues alike if I get stuck with something.”
“I gained wide-ranging professional knowledge, and my problem-solving skills have developed a great deal. No matter what problem I face in my own life, the approach to start thinking about a solution straight away has become the rule.”
„I'm always excited about annual team building. The atmosphere is lively and it is a great opportunity to get to know colleagues outside of the office, to re-charge our batteries and have fun.”
The business world changes quickly, so constant training is not only an opportunity but also a requirement at KPMG.

We are not just attorneys but also advisors who create value for our clients. At KPMG’s legal department you can forget traditional legal work since you can take on the latest challenges in the market, and you can prove yourself.
“I was given responsibility and tasks creating added value from day 1, mainly because our colleagues are evaluated solely based on their knowledge and performance. For me, this is one of the most important positive aspects of working at KPMG. In our team, everybody starts out with the same opportunities including university-student apprentices and trainee lawyers just before their bar examination. Everyone is assigned tasks that they are happy with and whose complexity is in line with the work they put in.”
“At KPMG, I’ve had the opportunity to meet incredible colleagues, who are at least just as great people as they are professionals. Besides this, there are a lot of professional challenges and opportunities for continuous development both as a lawyer and as a human being. This has led me to feel that my work is truly useful and progressive for society.”
“We worked together perfectly during a project with our colleagues. Everything went smoothly among us without any mistakes in a large official procedure, which included finalising the submission in the afternoon of the last day of the deadline, going to the post office at night and filing the submission. Despite the continuous concentration and the insane adrenalin levels, everyone knew what their job was, and when and how to do it. It was great to experience what it’s like when everything runs smoothly. The client was also happy, as were we when we went for a beer after the submission.”
Working between the fields of law and technology, you can really contribute to the future of the legal profession with us.
“We always try to think outside the box. Besides traditional legal advisory services, we also place great emphasis on state-of-the-art solutions.”
„Working together with other departments of KPMG we can solve complex problems and offer valuable solutions for clients.”
