Organization
Meijburg & Co is the largest tax advisory firm in the Netherlands and Meijburg Legal, with its civil-law notaries and lawyers, focuses on corporate law. Both organizations are independent member firms within the KPMG global network of professional firms (active in 153 countries). Each day more than 800 motivated Meijburg employees, spread across five locations, provide high quality services to our clients. Meijburg doesn’t adopt a ‘one size fits all’ approach to its employees and that’s what makes us unique as an advisory firm. However, what Meijburg employees do all have in common is that they are enterprising, ingenious and of course passionate about their profession.

Department
The GCMS (Global Compliance Management Services) practice is at the heart of the tax advisory and compliance practice and as part of the TMC (Tax Management Consulting, internationally known as ‘Tax Reimagined’) team is involved with coordinating, standardizing and transforming compliance processes for our clients. As department, we help clients with the set up of their tax function and strategy around global tax compliance. On a daily basis, we work together with 157 local KPMG member firms to support our clients across the globe. Our network enables us to achieve more standardization and more insight into the compliance processes. We identify opportunities for optimizing processes and provide clients with input with regard to large transformation projects. In that respect we work closely with our colleagues in the TMC team, our colleagues in other specializations and with KPMG global. The TMC team is made up of 25 colleagues, including the 14 members in the GCMS practice, spread across our offices in Amstelveen, Rotterdam and Eindhoven. The team environment is informal and characterized by collegiality and diversity.
