KPMG has been named as one of the top three large organisations to work for in the UK – for the third consecutive year.

The firm took second place in the Sunday Times ‘Best Big Companies’ category for organisations with more than 5,000 employees.

In 2006, KPMG was ranked in first place, and achieved third place the previous year.

John Griffith-Jones, chairman and senior partner of KPMG LLP, said: ‘The Sunday Times award consolidates KPMG’s position as one of the very best employers in the UK, and we are naturally proud that we continue to be recognised in this way. I am particularly pleased to see that 81 percent of our people surveyed would strongly recommend working for KPMG, and that 81 percent agreed that our people care about each other – a category in which we scored the highest of all the big companies surveyed.’
