What I like most about my job is working in an versatile environment. Although audit procedures may be rigid, the client’s business is not! Clients face various challenges and changes. This is why we adapt to them and develop flexible out-of-the box thinking when understanding their business and performing our risk assessment.
Moreover, I very much like to work in a team at Deloitte! There is so much to learn from each other, from the teams and the business lines. People will never say “I don’t know” or “leave it like it is”. There is an eagerness to learn within the company culture.
Deborah Brantschen
Manager, Audit & Assurance
What I really like about this job is the knowledge that I contribute to building and maintaining trust in the global market. Without me and other auditors, the global market would be an uncertain place. That makes me feel proud to be a part of this team. And although what I do involves some aspect of a routine, it’s never repetitive. I’m constantly learning, exploring new fields and updating my understanding of my work. I always have the impression that I’m growing while working at Deloitte. I even see that my superiors are constantly developing, too! You’re never stuck with the same knowledge here.
