Because of the nature and scope of our activities, Accenture is not shaped like a traditional consulting firm. Our matrix structure allows us to offer clients exactly the permutation of skills and knowledge that will help them achieve high performance. The business is built around industry-focused operating groups and skills-focused work groups. This means that your Accenture career could take you in a number of very different directions, depending on the skills or experience you have and how you want to develop.

Depending on career goals and business need, individuals may align with, and eventually be deployed solely to, a single industry group, where they can focus on selling our solutions and managing client relationships. Or they can focus on developing deep skills that can be used across different industry groups. This workforce structure provides our people with greater opportunities to build market-relevant skills in both general and specialist areas. As a result, our people have outstanding opportunities to develop skills in business, technical and functional areas that will help advance their careers.

Our five industry-focused operating groups are Communications & High Tech, Financial Services, Public Service, Products and Resources. These groups provide in-depth understanding of particular industries in the marketplace, the business issues affecting them and the technologies that can deliver innovation and ultimately high performance. Our growth platforms are Management Consulting, Systems Integration & Technology and Outsourcing. These growth platforms offer cross-industry experience in particular skills areas.
