“The firm is very supportive

of our sporting pursuits;
they don’t see it as something that’s out of our job scopes.
And it’s a win-win for me, because the successes I’ve had on
the water propel my desire to achieve more with our ESG
efforts for future generations too!”

Other than making waves in the water as part of the
regatta-winning KPMG dragon boat team, Amelia is also part
of the ESG Assurance team that’s been charting new waters
to help the firm become ESG-ready by establishing new
policies and training materials for staff.

Amelia Cheah, Senior Manager, Audit

“Most projects involve team

members of varying seniority –
this inclusive and collaborative nature ensures that a every
opportunity
range of perspectives and know-how is mobilised to
develop solutions effectively. It also accelerates learning
and leadership development!”

Vignesh finds joy in constantly learning – whether it’s

through holistic programmes offered at KPMG or picking
up new skills and knowledge from his peers. The firm’s
culture of perpetual learning has also rubbed off on him
– he’s picked up 12 certifications since joining less than

at KPMG
two years ago!

Vigneswaran Jayabal, Associate Director, Advisory

“Being able to work with our global

network on my portfolio of clients

Having already done two internships at KPMG, Hashim
knew that working at KPMG would not only provide him
with the opportunity to experience clients across a wide
spectrum of industries, but also geographies. That’s why
he chose to return to KPMG after university.

Ahmad Hashim Suleman, Associate, Tax

“I wanted a role that would enable

me to help others in the firm,
along with more flexibility over my schedule, so I gave it
a shot. Now I’m enjoying my career in HR!”

Renae started out in audit at KPMG, but made an

unexpected move to HR after almost two years – thanks
to her performance manager, who noticed her interest in
people and ability to build rapport with teammates.
