Job description
KPMG UK's Infrastructure Advisory Group (IAG) is a team of roughly 400 professionals and is widely recognised as one of the world's leading independent financial and commercial advisers in the infrastructure sector. IAG has locations in London, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Leeds and Manchester, but operates on a national basis.
