KPMG Student Programmes
Make your Mark
Sustainability on Campus
This year we have decided not to use unsustainable merchandise at KPMG campus recruitment events to better align with our sustainability values.
Instead you can make your mark through the KPMG Corporate Citizenship Programme, by asking KPMG to donate on your behalf to a charity of your choice here .
