KPMG Australia’s Post

I landed in the world of ‘Tech’ by chance as I had a good ability to communicate business needs and articulate them to Technology teams. Technology permeates all we do every day and has exponentially grown throughout my 30+ year career. When I first considered joining KPMG, my background and aspirations seemed to align perfectly with what we offer, despite not being a SME in technology or having studied it formally. I saw the opportunity to articulate our goals clearly, outline who is accountable, and ensure we're all set up for success. What intrigued me was the pivotal role KPMG plays at the intersection of business and IT, emphasising how businesses can adopt new technologies effectively. Every day at KPMG, we solve problems, and I’ve found immense joy in this aspect. Whether your interest lies in numbers, security operations, or something else, the key is to find what you enjoy solving and delve deeper into that area. If you’re good at something, it’s probably because you enjoy it. At KPMG, I’ve discovered endless opportunities, especially if you're open to change. Every opportunity is a chance to learn, even if it doesn’t seem like a perfect fit initially. Embracing these opportunities with confidence, even when uncertain, can lead to significant growth and learning. For those contemplating what is next, the tech landscape here is vast and integral to everything we do. You don’t need to be an SME; you can be a leader, team player, or data enthusiast. Whether you’re interested in data management, security operations, AI, or cyber, the possibilities are endless, and you don’t need to be an expert in just one field. Stay open to change, walk through doors that open for you. KPMG is a place where you can truly redefine your career path, find what you enjoy, and continuously learn.

I was a lateral into IT almost 30 years ago for very similar reasons - I can thoroughly recommend taking the leap! Samantha Murray you were an inspiration during the time I was lucky to spend with KPMG. I often find myself channeling you, especially during monthly service reviews, looking for opportunities to improve, whether our vendors or ourselves. Thank you for what, and how, you do you.
