Manager, Information Management and Data & Analytics

Overview

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.

Are you a talented leader with a proven track record for motivating teams and delivering exceptional client service?

We help organizations to become data driven! Will you collaborate with us?

Data is the new gold. However, data only has value through strong and reliable data analysis, clear interpretation and good data management. We help our clients in those areas to realize growth, improve performance and to manage risks.

Our Team

As a Manager in Data Management, you will be a part of our Technology Consulting (Information Management and Data & Analytics) practice within KPMG. This is a worldwide network of professionals who collaborate on a daily basis to create value from data. Enterprise Data Management integrates and is the connecting link with other data focused advisory services including Business Intelligence, Advanced Analytics, Digital Transformation, Enterprise Solutions and Data Security. We collaborate across service offerings on data driven solutions. And that is why Forrester Research has recently recognized KPMG as one of the most prominent advisory firms in Data & Analytics!

What you will do

Data Management is an indispensable basis for data analysis and data strategy. Together with your colleagues, you will build strong foundations for our (international) clients. We help our clients in understanding and better governing their data and enable them to analyze their data. You will contribute by:

• Creating and presenting data strategies, roadmaps and data operating models
• Leading the assessment and improvement of our clients’ data quality
• Implementing data management capabilities with our clients, so that (cloud) ERP systems perform flawlessly
• Managing data migrations by providing leading practices, relevant experience with specific (cloud) ERP systems

• Planning and executing day-to-day activities of advisory engagements for a variety of clients including data strategy and roadmap development, business process analysis, current state assessment and future state process design, data and business case analysis and tailoring recommendations specific to client’s use cases and needs
• Building long-term business relationships with client teams and executives through engagement delivery and networking in professional organizations
• Lead business development by presenting thought leadership directly to clients, at industry conferences and leading the development of winning proposals (approach development, effort estimation, collaboration with peers) and negotiation of contracts with clients
• Championing your own growth trajectory and learning interests to deepen your understanding of relevant trends, technology stacks and innovation strategies

You will have the opportunity to be part of our growing Data Management practice, in Canada and globally. Based on our success, you will learn from our Advanced Data Management methodology, training and access to KPMG’s Global Center of Excellence – you can be a part of it!

• At times, business needs arise and employees are required and agree to work beyond their normal work day or work week to fulfill the accountabilities required for their job. Likewise, people need time to devote to personal matters, and our approach to flexibility provides for this.
