You could be at your desk. On the train. In the lift. At the stores. Gardening. Queuing. Showering. Jogging. Even counting sheep. We don’t mind how you do your best thinking, as long as you do it. Mostly because it means you’re already like us. You’re not afraid of questioning the norm, or of giving other people your point of view. The prospect of working on out-there projects for up-there clients doesn’t make you shiver. Like the rest of us, you want to be challenged and pushed right out of your comfort zone. We broaden our minds on a daily basis. We’re pretty certain you’re unlikely to find training and development opportunities that stretch you quite like ours will. You could find yourself using technology in a way it’s never been used before. Or being told on a Friday night that you start a new project in Prague (or even further away) on Monday morning. There’s always going to be a lot happening. And a great deal that makes you think.
One of the main reasons is that they require specific skills and experience for particularly delicate or complex tasks and/or projects. It usually concerns projects so important that companies prefer to enlist people with experience. Moreover, external consultants are always required when a company needs an objective assessment of its business processes and strategies.
The main reason people choose a Consulting career at Accenture is because of the work we do. With many of the world’s leading companies as our clients, every project we undertake is significant and presents new challenges. The variety of work is endless as we collaborate with our clients to explore new ways to enable high performance.
You will gain insights and experience in specific businesses and issues, and rapidly develop a high level of specialist skills working on large-scale, complex engagements—more so than virtually anywhere else. Few career options offer a better platform for success than Consulting—it creates opportunities to accelerate your career development beyond what could be achieved with many other employers.
We can’t tell you exactly what the future holds, because it’s always changing to meet client demands. What we can say is that you’ll definitely be working as part of project teams made up of people with different skills and specializations.
Our Consulting professionals belong to one of three workgroups: Management Consulting, Systems Integration Consulting and Technology Consulting.
