Manager - Healthcare Advisory in Manchester

Healthcare Advisory base location: London, Birmingham, Leeds or Manchester plus a network of 20 offices nationally. KPMG is part of a global network of firms that through 16,000 colleagues brings creativity and insight to meeting our clients’ most critical challenges. With offices across the UK, we work with everyone from enterprises to national government bodies and major multinationals, in virtually every industry imaginable. Our work is often complex, yet our vision is simple: to be the clear choice for our clients, for our people and for the communities we work in.

KPMG UK’s Infrastructure, Government and Healthcare business is widely recognised as a leading financial and commercial adviser across the public sector. This advice, among other things, ranges from major system design, economic case making, cost and value work, transaction support, design of efficient operational processes and technology enablement. Our purpose is to support the projects that improve the fabric of our nation, and other nations around the world trying to improve the economic functioning and social wellbeing of their society. Our healthcare advisory business is a critical component of that effort. Healthcare is undergoing rapid change. The needs of an ageing population are becoming more complex, treatments more administratively complex, and technology adoption critical to its effective implementation. Our team advises across the sector and is among the market leaders in service transformation, capital project delivery and technology implementation.

We are looking for a Manager to work in our team focused on transformation, value for money and cost management in the public sector, with a core focus on healthcare but with an opportunity to grow into education, local government and defence if desired by the candidate. The team is part of the wider healthcare advisory business and has significant prospects for growth. Delivery of that growth offers clear routes to further progression within KPMG.
