Job description
Overview
At KPMG in Canada, our people bring their unique perspectives to Canada's most important challenges. Here, you can build momentum that reaches beyond our business, develop skills for the future, and take ownership of your career with support at every stage. Join a firm where your career can make a difference.

The Global Risk Management and Monitoring (GRMM) function is part of KPMG's integrated quality monitoring and compliance programs. It provides assurance to the KPMG network and external stakeholders of KPMG member firms' risk management activities.

The Senior Manager will play a critical role in the execution of KPMGI's risk monitoring activities, which is part of the firm's ERM model. This role requires strong internal audit skills, particularly focused on strategy execution. Knowledge of AI and emerging technologies, and the ability to apply these capabilities to enhance program delivery, assurance, and reporting would be an advantage.

What you will do
  • Conduct tiered and targeted risk reviews, applying internal audit techniques (e.g., walkthroughs, testing, evidence validation, stakeholder interviews) and technology-enabled techniques (data analytics, AI-supported assessment tools, dashboards) to detect qualitative and quantitative risk trends
  • Evaluate the strength, design, and operating effectiveness of risk mitigation responses across governance, organizational setup, strategy implementation, and quality-related processes
  • Produce high-quality, insight-driven reports that clearly articulate findings, root causes, implications, and prioritized remediation actions
  • Present results to senior stakeholders, ensuring clarity, transparency, and alignment with global risk mitigation objectives
  • Contribute to continuous improvement in risk monitoring activities through program developments and stakeholder collaboration and engagement
  • Build strong relationships across global, regional, and member firm stakeholders to promote awareness, cooperation, and timely remediation
What you bring to the role
  • Minimum eight years of experience in internal audit methodologies, strategy execution, governance, and risk management, with the ability to apply these skills in a global context
  • Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university or eight years of equivalent work experience
  • Expertise in leveraging AI, data analytics, and emerging technologies to enhance monitoring, assurance, and decision-making processes
  • Extensive experience in managing complex projects, ideally within a fast-paced environment with multiple priorities
  • Proven ability to work effectively with diverse teams across different geographies, cultures, and functions, fostering strong relationships and alignment
  • Ability to evaluate knowledge/inputs from other quality, compliance and risk monitoring programs and activities, KPMG network developments, and Global Leadership priorities, and drive improvements to support the Collective Strategy
  • Executive presence with the capability to influence, inspire, and guide teams and stakeholders toward continuous improvement
