Our Major Programmes Business

Deloitte's Major Programmes practice (part of the wider Human Capital offering) is currently recruiting for individuals with industry and technical skills that can help us grow and develop our capabilities.

The Major Programmes practice addresses the growing set of complex environmental, economic and social challenges facing the delivery of large-scale programmes. This market leading transformation approach will challenge conventional thinking around the delivery of major programmes, using a multi-disciplinary approach to help our clients address their most critical and demanding issues while reinforcing Deloitte's commitment to purpose-led change.

Our practice comprises a blend of those who have worked previously in industry (in both technical and non-technical roles) and those who have prior consulting experience. The strength and value Major Programmes bring to our clients and Deloitte is a result of our collectively diverse and highly relevant industry insights and experience; the complexity of challenges our clients face requires us to leverage this diverse range of skillsets and experiences.

You will have the opportunity to work across a range of programmes, building your skills and experience on the job, as well as supported by our world class professional development approach. You will also experience the breadth of expertise that Deloitte offers, working with colleagues across a range of disciplines and drawing on our market-leading methods, and our global assets and tools

Major Programmes Communities

We have a strong community of people who are passionate about making a difference and impact to citizens and public services. We work across the Public Sector, working closely with colleagues across Consulting and the wider Deloitte firm in accounts and project teams that cover Transport, Security and Justice, Defence, Health, and all other parts of central and local government.

We are particularly focused on large-scale transformation programmes, increasingly with an emphasis on programmes that form part of the Government's Major Project Portfolio and/or have a core digital change component. We have a strong ambition to significantly increase the size of our teams in Manchester and across the north of England, in line with the government's emerging regional and industrial strategies, the strengthening role of local and regional government and the ongoing drive to relocate public sector staff and work away from London.

The focus for this role will be within the Transport industry in Public Sector.

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.
