Deloitte invests in the next generation of Midlands talent with 90 early careers hires

Deloitte has welcomed 90 graduates, apprentices and industrial placement students across its Midlands practice, as the firm continues to invest in talent and support long-term growth across the region.

The new cohort has joined teams in audit and assurance, tax, and technology and transformation.

Deloitte recently celebrated the relocation of its Midlands operation to One Centenary Way at Paradise Birmingham, as part of the firm’s wider investment in the region.

In total, Deloitte has welcomed more than 1,500 early careers professionals this year, including 1,353 new graduates, apprentices and industrial placement students. This year’s early careers intake also includes 130 individuals who joined our technical academies and have progressed into Deloitte’s UK-wide technology teams.

The new hires are based across 21 locations throughout the UK, with 44 per cent (590) of them starting their careers outside of London.

Juliet Halfhead, practice senior partner, Deloitte Midlands, said: “This year’s intake represents another important investment in the future of our practice, while demonstrating our commitment to developing the skills needed to support our clients and the wider regional economy. The new cohort will have the opportunity to shape their careers while supporting ambitious organisations across the region.

“This is such an important time for Deloitte in the Midlands. As a firm we continue to play a major role in the projects that are forming the region’s future, and our continued investment in our people and our new Birmingham home reflects our confidence in the Midlands and its long-term growth.”
