Graduate Programme 2024 - Industry X at Accenture

THE WORK

• Join Accenture Industry X and you’ll help clients achieve greater productivity, drive growth and achieve their sustainability commitments. We do this by redefining not only how products are designed and engineered, sourced, supplied and manufactured but also driving circular practices every step of the way (from origin, to use, to renewal).
• Be a leader in your field by applying your skills to completely reimagine how to meet customer demands, create new levels of productivity, inspire growth and champion sustainability. Our Consultants work together to deliver seamless outcomes to our clients, leveraging our complementary skillsets and industry expertise.

As an Analyst you will be involved in the following:

• Identifying Opportunities: Assessing where the client is today, so we can identify ways to improve their business: gather, synthesise, visualise and analyse client information using research, interviews, workshops and analytic tools.
• Defining Client Needs: Identifying and documenting business requirements, so that we and the client understand and agree on what needs to change and take advantage of new opportunities.
• Designing the Future: Working with the client to design new business processes, technology requirements, and the plan for how we bring these changes to life using processes, technology and people.
• Guiding our Clients: Defining how the client will evolve to the new stage—define the impact of the changes and the steps we will take to help the leaders, employees, customers and others adapt quickly to new ways of working.
