Flex with Purpose
How We Work
KPMG has transitioned to our Flex with Purpose work model, a consistent but flexible way of working that creates opportunities for purposeful collaboration as we move between in-person and remote work.
With Flex with Purpose, the large majority of our people are designated as hybrid, spending some days in person at offices and/or client sites and some working remotely, depending on the needs of our clients, and individual and collective team needs. Flex with Purpose is about empowering flexibility and well-being, while still participating in in-person activities that are well planned, intentional, and purposeful.
Flex with Purpose Guiding Principles
Empowered
We are empowered to collaborate in ways that work for our culture, clients, and for us personally to build trust, resilience, wellbeing, compassion, and authenticity.
Purposeful
Our interactions—whether in-person or virtual—will be more collaborative and intentional to enable us to succeed, learn and cultivate our best performance and career aspirations.
Supportive
Our firm will provide the tools, resources, and opportunities to do what matters most and to make a broader, more inclusive impact.
Determined
Our firm will continue to deliver the best results and innovative solutions for our clients—regardless of location—using an outcomes-based mindset.
Evolving
We are on a long-term journey—together and for better—and will leverage our Values to support our clients and each other to deliver excellence now and in the future.
Flex with Purpose Model
Hybrid
Using a combination of in-person and virtual work, hybrid is the norm for the large majority of our people, to balance an exceptional client, partner, and employee experience.
*Professionals designated as hybrid must be within a commutable distance to the office to which they are assigned. Commutable distance is defined as a distance that would not interfere with your ability to be in your assigned office when needed to satisfactorily fulfill your job duties, as determined by your practice or group.
Fully Remote
A limited number of individuals/teams are fully remote, depending on the nature of their work, with the rare circumstances that may require in-person work at an office or client site.
Office Based
A limited number of individuals/teams are in-person more often, depending on the nature of their work.
