In line with Deloitte’s purpose to make an impact that matters, “two minds” are coming together in the form of Deloitte Africa’s Risk Advisory practice and Deloitte NL’s Risk Advisory practice in a joint venture known as Africa Talent by Deloitte, which will leverage multi-continental knowledge and experience, cross-border engagement, and diversity of talent, to create an innovative and entrepreneurial space to solve client challenges/influence responsible business, and accelerate learning and growth.​

This ‘space’ is a true encapsulation of hybrid work, whereby individuals and teams gain access and exposure to learn from and engage with their global colleagues, while working virtually from their local Deloitte office, or from home. ​

What impact will you make?
Are you passionate about sustainability? Do you want to make a difference by helping clients to become a more responsible business?

Stakeholders have been challenging businesses on the impacts they have on society and the environment. There is a growing demand from companies to assess, manage and report on their impacts. From climate change and human rights violations to water pollution and diversity and inclusion matters - there are complex and interrelated factors that businesses need to consider before they can reduce their negative impacts – and increase the positive ones.

Together with your Deloitte colleagues, you will help organisations integrate impact into the business strategy and decision-making process and to become a more ethical and responsible business while creating long-term value.
