Where will I work?

At Deloitte we recognise how important face-to-face interaction is for your development in a new role. We also understand that our people need flexibility, which is why we operate a hybrid system, with a combination of office and home working. If you're in a client-facing role, you might be expected to attend client sites on certain days, while your meetings will be a mix of online and in-person events. Please note your final assessment and induction will also be in-person, to give you the opportunity to network and build relationships.

All our work spaces are accessible, however, if you require further flexibility due to a health condition or caring responsibilities, please discuss this with our team. You can find further information on our parent and carer policies here.

How will I develop?

Joining the Government & Infrastructure Advisory team will give you a chance to develop as a financial and commercial advisor, while learning about the public and private sector. You'll work with experienced professionals on projects involving government agencies and infrastructure and gain expertise in commercial and procurement activity. You'll also learn the foundations of funding and financing, and develop corporate finance skills that will support your clients.

Joining G&I, you will undertake the CFAB qualification before continuing onto either the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst qualification) or CIPS (Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply) to support relevant work in the team.
