About KPMG In Malaysia's People & Learning
KPMG in Malaysia's People & Learning function— known as People, Performance & Culture (PPC) and Learning & Development (L&D)—sits at the core of the firm's people strategy. The department plays a pivotal role in attracting, developing, and retaining top talent while cultivating a high‑performance culture that supports the firm's long-term growth and strategic ambitions.
The PPC team is part of a dynamic HR function that is committed to building a strong organizational culture, empowering people, and ensuring KPMG remains an employer of choice in the professional services landscape.
The Learning & Development arm equips KPMG professionals with the knowledge, skills, and mindset needed to deliver exceptional client service. The team provides world‑class learning frameworks, technical and soft-skills development, and cutting-edge training resources that empower our people to innovate, solve complex problems, and grow in their careers. L&D also delivers timely insights and data to help business leaders effectively manage employee development and progression.
Together, the People & Learning function is committed to building an empowered, future-ready workforce and ensuring KPMG remains an employer of choice within the professional services industry.
