Pay and benefits
We’re always competing to attract and retain the very best people, so we continuously review our rewards strategy to make sure it’s the best it can be.
Promotion and development
We strive to make learning accessible. We provide ongoing support via online personal development tools. As your career unfolds, ‘self-directed learning’ is available online to enable you to take increasing control of your development and to empower you to decide where you want to focus your career.
Company culture
Our core values have shaped the culture and defined the character of our company, guiding how we behave and how we make decisions. These six core values continue to serve us well as an organisation: Stewardship, Best People, Client Value Creation, One Global Network, Respect for the Individual, and Integrity.
Diversity, social responsibility
We believe our commitment to building, maintaining and expanding an inclusive culture is central to our organisation’s ongoing success. Our approach to inclusion and diversity stems from a twofold desire: to live and work in one world, free from the constraints of geographical barriers or cultural perceptions, and to seek innovative practices that bring additional flexibility to the workplace.
Environment and sustainability
From paper recycling schemes and reducing our travel to saving energy and greening our supply chains, we are always looking to make a positive impact.
Innovation
Accenture collaborates with clients to help them realise their vision and achieve high performance by delivering innovation. That could mean anything from helping transform Warner Bros into one of the first studios in the world to move its film and television production, post-production and distribution to an integrated digital end-to-end process; to helping bring the benefits of mobile technology to the Maasai in rural Kenya for the first time.
