A career in Audit & Assurance

Why work in Audit & Assurance?

Intellectual challenge

We deal in complexity, analysing problems, working out what’s important and delivering solutions. So expect to use your critical thinking skills and judgement.

From the beginning of your time with us, you’ll be encouraged to really get to know your client’s business and how they work. That might mean visiting a manufacturing site to learn about the water purification process, for example, or even to do a stock count for a doughnut company!

We’re refocusing our work on what matters most: delivering value. Which means we’re actively seeking opportunities to eliminate anything that doesn’t help us deliver the highest quality audit. So, you’ll be spending less time “doing the audit” and more time with your clients, on your own development, and on achieving your ideal work-life balance.

What we do

We work with some of the most influential multinationals, innovative start-ups and biggest household names in sectors that range from financial services to manufacturing, real estate to pharmaceutical and media to energy. Our work underpins the accuracy of the financial information that shareholders use to make economic and investment decisions.

We use our in-depth knowledge, insights and experience to help our clients:

• Improve the quality of their control environment and so reduce the risk of error and fraud;
• Improve efficiency and productivity; and
• Better understand their long-term risks such as industry and regulatory trends.

Ensuring quality, integrity and reliability in an audit means firms must continuously find ways to improve what they do and how they do it. At Deloitte, embedding a culture of innovation to improve how we serve our clients and train our people is a priority.
