GLOBAL EMPLOYEE EXCHANGE PROGRAM

As a progressive accounting and advisory firm, PKF Mueller offers a program that expands the horizons for our team members. Through our affiliation with PKF International, we provide employees with the opportunity to apply for participation in our Global Employee Exchange Program (GEEP). This is also referred to as PKF GO, PKF’s Secondment Program.

 

Employees selected for the program have the unique opportunity to travel abroad and work with an international member firm for a stated period of time. They will have the opportunity to share their technical expertise, develop new skills, and gain first-hand experience with diverse business environments and cultures across our global network. Selected employees then return to their home office to share their newly gained experience, knowledge and insights with colleagues and clients.

Current & Past Global Exchanges

Check out the U.S. and German employees below who had the opportunity to participate in GEEP and learn more about their experiences working abroad.
