Manager, Technology Strategy & Transformation

At KPMG, you’ll join a team of diverse and dedicated problem solvers, connected by a common cause: turning insight into opportunity for clients and communities around the world.

As a Manager in our Technology Strategy & Transformation practice, you will spearhead enterprise-wide digital transformation and innovation, applying a strategic, digital-first mindset. You combine hands-on technical depth with consulting acumen to harness the latest in AI (including generative AI), modern infrastructure, and data modernization across the enterprise. You translate cutting-edge technology into tangible business value, architecting business solutions that align with organizational strategy and growth objectives. More than a technologist, you are a storyteller and strategist, fluent in platform thinking and enterprise transformation. You articulate complex ideas through compelling narratives that guide stakeholders through change and inspire teams.

As a leader, you manage multi-disciplinary teams and client engagements, orchestrating transformative outcomes at scale.
