      There were 47 internal promotions, 21 lateral hires, and two new partners who joined the firm through an acquisition. 

      KPMG Australia CEO Andrew Yates commented: “In this year’s unpredictable environment, the benefits of a diverse business, and diverse talent come to the fore. I’m incredibly proud to announce the appointment of this year’s partners who come from a broad range of backgrounds to support our clients.”

      “Reflecting the balance in our business, all divisions of our firm appointed new partners, with Consulting and KPMG Enterprise, which serves the mid-market and family offices of Australia, investing most heavily. For Consulting, this was primarily an expansion of our technology and transformation capability.  For KPMG Enterprise, double-digit revenue growth drove the increase. We also made significant investment in our heritage businesses of Audit, Tax and Deal Advisory.  Pleasingly, the majority of this year’s new partners stem from internal promotions, reflecting our focus on leadership development and building career paths at the firm.”


      Composition
      • 46% of new partners are women; 27% of the new partners also identified as culturally diverse.
      • New partners were admitted across Australia’s major cities: the majority joined in Sydney (30) and Melbourne (13). Nine joined the Perth office, while Brisbane took on eight partners and Canberra welcomed five.  The firm continued to invest in its mid-market offices with two partners joining the Adelaide team, and one appointment each in Newcastle, Gold Coast and Parramatta.
      • The Audit and Assurance division added 11 new partners, while Consulting added 18 partners. Enterprise, the firms’ mid-market business, added 17 partners; Tax & Legal added 11 partners; and Deal Advisory and Infrastructure appointed 8 partners.  The Office of the General Counsel, and Clients and Markets each welcomed two new partners, and one partner has been appointed in the role of Deputy CFO.
