About the Role

Technology Implementation Manager – Tax Technology

KPMG UK
Location: Canary Wharf, London or Glasgow
Working pattern: Hybrid – 2 days per week in the office

KPMG is seeking experienced Technology Implementation Managers to join its Tax Technology & Innovation team. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in transforming how tax and accounting compliance services are delivered through cutting-edge technology, automation, analytics, and data-driven solutions.

About KPMG Tax Technology & Innovation

KPMG’s Tax Technology & Innovation team is made up of more than 300 technologists supporting a wider Tax and Law business of over 2,500 professionals. Together, they deliver innovative technology solutions that help thousands of businesses and private clients navigate everything from routine compliance to highly complex tax matters.

As one of the world’s most respected consultancy firms, KPMG has a long-standing heritage of supporting businesses, institutions, and communities across the UK through periods of change, challenge, and growth. Joining this team means becoming part of an organisation with both a strong legacy and a forward-looking approach to innovation.

Why Join This Team?

Tax is one of the sectors expected to be reshaped most significantly by generative AI and emerging technologies. In this role, you will be part of a team leading that evolution—redefining how tax is managed in the UK and globally, while helping organisations meet their obligations with greater efficiency, accuracy, and ease.

This is a chance to work at the intersection of technology, transformation, and tax compliance, helping clients modernise processes and adopt smarter digital solutions in a rapidly changing environment.

The Opportunity

As a Technology Implementation Manager, you will support the implementation and adoption of KPMG’s compliance technology platforms across the UK and EMA firms. You will help clients improve global tax and accounting compliance through the effective delivery of innovative technology solutions.

This role will place you at the centre of large-scale Global Compliance & Transformation projects, where you will work with both internal teams and external clients to ensure successful technology delivery from concept through to execution.

Key Responsibilities

In this position, you will be responsible for leading and supporting a broad range of implementation and transformation activities, including:

Collaborating with stakeholders to turn business and client needs into clear, actionable deliverables
Gathering and translating requirements for technical teams to support successful solution design and delivery
Supporting business development activities, including:
proposal writing
client presentations
technology demonstrations
helping win new engagements and strengthen existing relationships
Advising clients and working alongside their project managers to deliver successful technology outcomes
Managing end-to-end implementation of KPMG and third-party technology solutions
Leading multiple concurrent projects, ensuring milestones, activities, risks, budgets, and quality standards are effectively managed
Driving delivery excellence and agility, enabling rapid and secure go-to-market execution
Coordinating project teams, including offshore resources, to build and implement effective tax technology solutions

What You’ll Bring

To succeed in this role, you should be able to combine strong delivery capability with the ability to build trusted relationships and navigate complex stakeholder environments.

Essential Experience and Skills

Strong interest in, or experience with, tax and reporting technology
Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills
Proven experience delivering technology implementation projects
Hands-on experience working with agile delivery methodologies
Understanding of tax and accounting processes
Ability to adapt quickly to new technologies, ways of working, and evolving client needs
Experience in technology change and transformation environments
People management and performance development experience

Preferred Background

Experience in tax or finance compliance
Familiarity with global compliance and transformation programmes

Additional Skills That Would Be Valuable

While not essential, the following would be considered a strong advantage:

Accounting or tax qualifications such as:
ACCA
ACA
CTA
or equivalent
Experience in business development
Involvement in the end-to-end sales cycle for technology solutions

Location and Flexibility

KPMG is open to speaking with talent from across the UK; however, preference will be given to candidates who are willing and able to work 2 days per week from one of the core technology hubs for this role:

Canary Wharf, London
Glasgow

Flexible hours and part-time arrangements may also be possible. If flexibility is important to you, KPMG encourages you to discuss this with the recruitment team during the application process.

Why This Role Stands Out

This opportunity offers the chance to shape the future of tax technology in a globally recognised organisation. You will work with leading specialists, innovative platforms, and high-profile clients while helping drive meaningful transformation in a sector experiencing rapid technological change.

If you are passionate about implementation, transformation, and the future of digital tax services, this role offers both challenge and impact in equal measure.
