Experience Deloitte through our people’s eyes
Deloitte are one of the Big Four. We're one of the largest network services in the world.

The team has experience in designing, implementing, and enhancing business processes, working with a broad range of clients across all sectors, including financial services, corporate and public sector. 

Through day-to-day engagement with our clients, we are able to work with senior leaders across a range of disciplines and understand the inner workings, challenges and opportunities faced by our clients.  

We are looking for people who are collaborative team players, and effective communicators. In our team you’ll learn the technical skills you need to deliver great work for clients, and a deep insight into lots of different industries. 

What kind of work will I do?

The projects in Internal Audit & Change are varied as we work with a broad range of organisations, with different levels of maturity, all working towards different ambitions and targets.  

Your role might involve:  

  • Assessing the design and/or operating effectiveness of a control, process, or function. 
  • Running audits across a number of interesting processes of an organisation, getting to the heart of their business model, revenue generation process and customer service. 
  • Designing the future control environment for an organisation. 
  • Providing recommendations on how a client can improve its risk mitigation activities.  
  • Advising a client on their approach to assurance. 
  • Building and embedding a new assurance or internal audit function. 
  • Getting to the bottom of client’s problems through interactive workshops.  

You may also have the opportunity to be aligned to one of our teams covering technology and cyber controls (which includes auditing artificial intelligence tools and technologies), transformation and change assurance, or data analytics.

Where will I work?

At Deloitte we recognise how important face-to-face interaction is for your development in a new role. We also understand that our people need flexibility, which is why we operate a hybrid system, with a combination of office and home working.

If you’re in a client-facing role, you might be expected to attend client sites on certain days, while your meetings will be a mix of online and in-person events. Please note your final assessment and induction will also be in-person, to give you the opportunity to network and build relationships.  

All our work spaces are accessible, however, if you require further flexibility due to a health condition or caring responsibilities, please discuss this with our team.
