Do you want to be part of a dynamic team? You can make an impact by joining KPMG.
Don’t miss this opportunity to join our team of professionals as a Manager/Sr. Manager with the Canadian Corporate Tax group in our Winnipeg office. KPMG’s office in Winnipeg is located in the heart of Winnipeg’s downtown financial district, at the corner of Portage and Main Street, in the Richardson Building. Downtown Winnipeg is currently undergoing a transformation, with investment in a new college campus (Red River College) and entertainment complex (the MTS Centre); office and hotel construction; the restoration of downtown’s heritage buildings for restaurants, nightclubs, retailers, and residential living; the revitalization of the Millennium Library; and the relocation of the Manitoba Hydro building. New business improvement zones, development plans, and focused leadership, from the private and public sectors, are helping to fuel the growth and vibrancy of the downtown core. Portage and Main, one of Canada’s most famous intersections, is at the heart of the central business district. Competitive real estate costs and its central location within North America make Winnipeg a great location for business. Downtown Winnipeg has a number of distinct character areas and historic sites, including Chinatown, the Exchange District and The Forks, as well as many retail, dining, recreational, and cultural facilities. Access and mobility are enhanced by a comprehensive transit system, free downtown shuttle bus service, a water taxi, a sheltered walkway system, and indoor/outdoor parking.
