Every year, KPMG in Bermuda seeks newly-qualified Audit Seniors within our Insurance and our Investments & Banking practices, to commence in September. The firm employs more than 180 people from around the world.

Our client base includes Bermuda-based insurance, reinsurance and captive re/insurance companies, international banks and a variety of investment funds. Our clients range from relatively small businesses through to listed companies and subsidiaries of KPMG’s international clients.
