Job description

Join us. But be you. At Deloitte, you’ll do more than just join something—you’ll add something. You’ve found a place that values your curiosity, passion, and desire to work alongside brilliant people on the things that really matter. The question is: what impact do you want to make? 

The team you’ll join 

Step into a delivery team that is redefining how transformation happens. Our teams operate using Deloitte’s Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) model—a client-embedded, outcome-focused approach that brings together business and technical expertise to solve complex problems in real time. 

You’ll work side-by-side with clients in small, high-impact teams, combining deep business understanding, advanced analytics and AI-enabled platforms, and rapid solution prototyping and delivery. 

The impact you’ll make 

  • Lead problem framing and value definition 

  • Drive discovery and solution design 

  • Work in embedded, cross-functional pods 

  • Build, not just define 

  • Accelerate adoption and value realisation 

  • Shape decisions with data 

  • Partner with clients 

How you’ll work (The FDE difference) 

You’ll operate in a model that is: 

  • Business issue-led 

  • Client-embedded 

  • Platform-powered 

  • Outcome-driven 

Your expertise 

  • Experience in business analysis, product, or transformation delivery 

  • Or an insatiable appetite to understand and solve people’s problems 

  • Strong communication skills 

  • A technical mindset, paired with a capability to harness and implement AI solutions 

Why this role is different 

This role sits at the forefront of a major shift in how organisations deliver value. There is growing demand for practitioners who can bridge the gap between business ambition and technical execution. 

What you’ll get 

  • High-impact transformation programmes 

  • Exposure to leading platforms and AI-driven solutions 

  • Fast-paced, collaborative environment 

  • Ability to deliver tangible outcomes quickly 

  • Continuous development and learning 

How you’ll be rewarded:
We recognise performance beyond remuneration. The Deloitte experience is built on trust, balance, wellbeing, and connection.

We offer you:

  • Flexible work arrangements
  • Subsidised professional qualifications and memberships
  • Subsidised health insurance
  • Income protection insurance
  • 22 days annual leave
  • Social events and wellbeing initiatives
  • Community volunteer opportunities
  • Environmental and sustainability focus

Does this sound like the sort of role and organisation for you? Then apply now. We would value your application.

We believe the strongest teams are made up of diverse individuals and we are proud to be an equal opportunities employer. We recognise that women and individuals from under-represented backgrounds may hesitate to apply if they don't meet all criteria. If you're passionate about this role and believe you have the skills, we encourage you to apply, even if your experience, ideal working hours or qualifications aren't a perfect match.
