Connect to your skills and professional experience

Attracting someone who will share our values, fit into our culture and identify with our purpose, is just as important as attracting someone with the right qualifications or experience.

You're a natural at collaborating for impact. Someone who understands how our business works, and can collaborate across the business with people and teams at all levels. We're all about letting our leaders lead, so we'll give you the breathing space you need to do so. We're also keen to let your creative strengths shine, and to make your own distinctive impact.

You're a trusted business partner. You have strong IQ and EQ and a proven ability to business partner across a broad range of stakeholders and provide proactive, commercial, practical advice to both protect and enable the firm.

You're adaptable and resilient. Proactive, self-motivated and reliable, you're organised with the ability to manage your own workloads, balance varied work and multiple stakeholders, with a flexible approach, "can do" attitude, and ability to learn new areas quickly.

• Experienced and confident lawyer with a proven ability to work on a wide variety of commercial matters (including non-contentious and contentious)

• Excellent drafting, negotiation and communication skills, and ability to influence

Connect to your business - Enabling Functions

Collaboration is central to everything we do at Deloitte. From IT to HR, marketing and more, our teams help to support the wider business in everything they do. Bringing your individual skills and specialist knowledge, you can make a far-reaching impact.

Finance and Legal

We provide financial management and accounting support that is aligned to each area of Deloitte’s business as well as the leadership team. We prepare the statutory and regulatory reporting required for Deloitte LLP and several other areas, whilst our General Counsel provides legal advice to the Board, the Executive and the Managing Partners.

Personal independence

Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints (e.g., in relation to any financial interests and employment relationships). This can mean that you and your "Immediate Family Members" are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm, and also prohibitions on certain employment relationships (e.g., you are not permitted to hold a secondary employment role with SEC audit clients of the firm whilst being employed by the firm). The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process, or you can contact the Independence team upon request.
