About KPMG in Malaysia’s Assurance – Branches

At KPMG in Malaysia, Audit has evolved into a dynamic, value‑driven function that goes well beyond statutory compliance. Our Assurance practice combines robust audit methodologies, strong analytical capabilities, and a deep understanding of evolving regulatory and business environments to deliver insights that strengthen governance and build trust.

Our Branch Offices Across Malaysia

• Penang
• Ipoh
• Johor Bahru
• Kuching
• Miri
• Labuan
• Kota Kinabalu
  
  

play a critical role in supporting regional businesses and industries across Malaysia. These offices work closely with local clients, offering assurance services that are globally consistent yet tailored to the unique needs of regional markets.

Our purpose is simple yet powerful — to create value‑driven insights that truly Make the Difference for our clients, stakeholders, and communities. As an experienced professional based in one of our branch offices, you will play a key role in shaping audit quality, driving engagement outcomes, mentoring junior team members, and contributing to the continued growth and evolution of KPMG’s audit practice within a close‑knit and collaborative regional team environment.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out?

This role offers experienced audit professionals the opportunity to step into greater responsibility while continuing to grow technical depth and leadership capability.

• Join one of Malaysia’s most established and reputable audit practices
• Gain exposure to a broad range of industries across Financial Services and General Audit
• Take on leadership responsibilities early, including mentoring and guiding junior team members
• Work in a collaborative, learning focused environment that supports continuous development
• Enhance your professional judgement, technical expertise, and client facing skills within a global professional services firm

• Perform internal control testing and analytical review procedures
• Ensure financial statements comply with statutory requirements
• Draft audit reports and management letters

How Will You Make Your Mark?

In this role, you will play a key part in driving audit quality and strengthening client confidence by:

• Demonstrating strong leadership and managerial potential, guiding and developing junior team members
• Applying analytical thinking and professional skepticism to identify risks and improvement areas
• Building and maintaining strong client relationships through clear communication and high-quality deliverables
• Leading by example by upholding KPMG’s values — Integrity, Excellence, Courage, Togetherness, and Accountability
