Trying to decide to pursue an assistant manager role for KPMG-London that a recruiter reached out about. I’m a senior 1 at EY. Are there benefits of international experience in terms of career growth?

@EY2. WTF are you smoking? International experience will only help build credibility with client, especially multi-nationals, and build business. If 2 firms walk in the room, and 1 says they know their business from both a US and UK viewpoint, and the other can’t, who’s going to win?

SEC clients are global, have global needs, and need global insights.

@EY1 if things work out 😉 it was just a LinkedIn inquiry so I'd be surprised if anything comes of it

You’re going to have to be more specific. There’s a ton of information on why you should get intentional business experience on google. This a no-brainer question.

International experience doesn't benefit you in your career as much as people think. The bottom line in a public accounting career is bringing in clients. Let's say you do an international rotation as a manager and come back a year later - there's no guarantee you'll be on your same team, have the same clients, or be in the same position. The firm moves on and sometimes people get left behind in those situations. If your goal isn't really making partner, then it can be an awesome personal experience but I wouldn't look to international experience as a career builder unless you're looking to relocate, move, etc. Much of any skills you build abroad won't correlate much back home on SEC clients.
