Connect to your business - Technology and Transformation

Distinctive thinking, deep expertise, innovation and collaborative working. That's what connects us. That's what makes us Deloitte. If you want to help solve some of the biggest tech and transformational challenges around, join us. Together, we'll make an impact that matters.

Customer

Human connections are integral to business. We combine people, ideas and technology to support our clients to build strong connections. For example, through commerce, customer design and sales services.

Personal independence

Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints (e.g., in relation to any financial interests and employment relationships). This can mean that you and your "Immediate Family Members" are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm, and also prohibitions on certain employment relationships (e.g., you are not permitted to hold a secondary employment role with SEC audit clients of the firm whilst being employed by the firm). The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process or you can contact the Independence team upon request.

-Gillian, T&T
