About KPMG In Malaysia's Growth

KPMG in Malaysia's Growth Department encompasses Marketing & Communications (Marcom), Markets, Impact@KPMG and Knowledge Management (KM). This multi-disciplinary division is responsible for driving the firm's brand visibility, market positioning, stakeholder engagement, and strategic research insights.

The department works closely with business leaders across Audit, Tax, Advisory, and Firmwide functions to deliver impactful marketing campaigns, digital strategy, media engagement, thought leadership, market intelligence, and ESG initiatives.

Interns joining the Growth Department will have the unique opportunity to contribute to KPMG's brand narrative, strengthen engagement with internal and external stakeholders, and support strategic projects that enhance the firm's overall presence and impact.

Real-World Exposure in a Big 4 Environment: Gain hands-on experience supporting campaigns, events, reports, and initiatives that impact firm leadership and external stakeholders.
Professional Growth and Mentorship: Learn directly from experienced managers, specialists, and industry practitioners.
Portfolio-Building Opportunities: Produce tangible work: content pieces, analysis reports, multimedia assets, event outputs and ESG initiatives.
High-Impact Contribution: Your ideas and deliverables can shape branding, market intelligence, sustainability and communication strategies at national level.
