KPMG appoints new Head of People UK

KPMG has appointed a new UK Head of People. 

Ann Brown joins from Nationwide Building Society where she held the role of Divisional Director, HR.

Simon Collins, UK Chairman of KPMG, comments: “The workplace has changed enormously in recent years and employers must now think carefully about how to adapt to the differing needs of a multi-generational workforce and how technology has changed the way we work.  As a professional services firm, we are continuously adapting our client offerings to suit their changing needs and to help them stay ahead of market changes.

“This therefore changes the requirements of our own people, such as ensuring learning and development programmes give them the knowledge and skills they need to do the job.  At the same time, it is both commercially and socially vital that we continue to attract an ever-increasingly diverse workforce.  Ann will play an important role in helping us adapt and evolve the way we work with our people to meet these challenges.”
