Mobility and exchange
Our professionals are given the opportunity and encouraged by our leadership to take assignments throughout KPMG International's global network and experience other cultures. Global Opportunities (GO) is a programme covering all forms of temporary assignments to KPMG member firms, with professionals retaining employment in their home country.
Four types of assignments are available, ranging from three months to two years, enabling our professionals to acquire international experience in emerging markets and new practices, and competencies to meet business demands and advance their careers. In 2014, 38 KPMG in Brazil professionals joined the GO programme.
“The Mobility programme provided the opportunity to spend two years working with the International Standards Group, in London, where the full range of IFRS supporting materials is produced for KPMG member firms. It was the right place to build and transfer professional skills to KPMG in Brazil”
