KPMG is a leading provider of professional services, which include audit, tax and advisory. KPMG’s International Development Advisory Services (IDAS) unit is based in Nairobi, Kenya and has adopted a pan-African approach to development work, employing full-time experienced development experts within the KPMG Africa team at our headquarters in Nairobi, together with a network of champions across the twenty countries of KPMG in sub-Saharan Africa.

The IDAS unit focuses on understanding clients’ organisations and operations, and supporting them in delivering their development programmes. 

The core of our work is in advisory and audit assignments for donors, for example providing grant management services, supporting the development and operationalisation of private sector development and governance enhancement programmes, and supporting the development and performance of donor and civil society organisations. 

We also provide audit and assurance services for many donor and civil society organizations.

Due to continued growth, IDAS is looking to recruit grants management staff at various levels to work mainly in the East Africa region but also in other African countries in which IDAS operates in. 

We are looking for professionals to be based in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Mozambique, South Sudan, Somaliland and Somalia.
