"The secret behind the huge impact we delivered this year, is our people. Our diverse team has mastered the projects that matter to our clients."

- Jukka-Petteri Suortti, Head of Consulting 

In FY23, consulting in Finland was on a growth train to impressive results. We truly delivered on our objective of the year of being a connected team that delivers increasing impact. The result was the sixth straight year of market-beating growth and a team that grew to 250 consultants.   

Our number one priority this fiscal year was to focus on our people’s sense of belonging to ensure our ever-growing team is tightly connected and finds Deloitte an exceptional place of work. This was also the key from the performance perspective – by ensuring a great working environment and a continued focus on executing our long-term strategy, we had a record year with 25% growth.   

Building a more sustainable future   

The sustainability agenda has come to stay, and it is key that it is not separated from core business or strategy. Our clients expect us to embed sustainability into everything we do, and our focus is to help our clients to transform sustainably throughout their business, whether it is through strategy, AI, data, the supply chain, finance or IT.

This fiscal year, we joined forces with many companies in building a more sustainable future. We played a material role in safeguarding Finland’s transition to the new welfare areas. We helped one of the world’s best recognised industrial brands begin their digital presence transformation. We worked together with a company in the FSI envision a more human-centric, resource efficient and sustainable future and transform towards such a future by redesigning the insurance company’s role within healthcare service journeys. Our supply team won Deloitte’s European award in the category of ‘Most impactful project’. 

With the best team, we can make an impact that matters  

During FY23 we grew our Finnish team by over 20%. This increased size helps us to develop both the breadth and depth of our capabilities and, importantly, it continuously enriches the diversity of our talent – we now have 13 nationalities in our team. Our Finnish clients also benefited from the experiences and capabilities of our international colleagues. This seamless global cooperation accelerates growth in our strategic priorities.    

Our cooperation with our alliance partners grew closer in FY23, and we now offer a wide range of tech-enabled consulting services with, for example, SAP, Salesforce, ServiceNow, AWS and other strategic partners of ours. Alliances are increasingly important for us in delivering a transformational impact to our clients. Together with them and our strengthening integration within the Nordics and Europe, we will elevate our societal impact and continue growing responsibly.   

A business transformation partner with whom to navigate through changes  

We continue to live in an age where unprecedented change occurs – the geopolitical landscape is being redrawn, the climate crisis is real and the role of governments is evolving. In addition, regulation plays an increasing role, societal norms shift and technological innovation is exponential. Organisations need a partner with whom they can navigate through all these changes – and we believe we are just that. Short-term market sentiment and pressures are evident, but we are confident of our longer-term position. Not only do we have the capacity to get through these challenges together, we will also position ourselves as the number one business transformation partner across our chosen priority industries.
