Deloitte

'Deloitte' is the brand under which tens of thousands of dedicated professionals in independent firms throughout the world collaborate to provide audit, consulting, financial advisory, risk management, and tax services to selected clients. These firms are members of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited (DTTL), a UK private company limited by guarantee. Each member firm provides services in a particular geographic area and is subject to the laws and professional regulations of the particular country or countries in which it operates.
DTTL does not itself provide services to clients. DTTL and each DTTL member firm are separate and distinct legal entities, which cannot obligate each other. DTTL and each DTTL member firm are liable only for their own acts or omissions and not those of each other. Each DTTL member firm is structured differently in accordance with national laws, regulations, customary practice, and other factors, and may secure the provision of professional services in its territory through subsidiaries, affiliates, and/or other entities.
The member firms reported aggregate revenue of US$26.6 billion for the fiscal year ended 31 May 2010, operating in more than 150 countries and with approximately 170,000 professionals committed to a single vision: to be the standard of excellence.

Its revenue for 2010 fiscal year was A$821 million.
Deloitte Australia emerged from constraints of the global financial crisis in good shape achieving the strongest growth performance of the Big 4 professional services firms.

Our vision and culture

Deloitte’s vision is to be the most inspiring firm to work with - for its people, its clients and its communities. Deloitte is committed to innovation, the oxygen that it uses to develop new ideas, products and services that create value for itself, its clients and the country. With seven key values or 'signals' that have been honed over the years, Deloitte's culture is based on empower and trust; recruit and retain the best; talk straight; continuously grow and improve; play to win - think globally; aim to be famous; and have fun and celebrate.
Deloitte is proud of its “playful culture with serious intent” (Giam Swiegers, Deloitte CEO, 2010). It is in the business of solving complex problems for its clients which it does by engaging its people through a series of innovative communication channels and 'think tanks'. This is the foundation it uses to create an “and different” environment and which has contributed to the firm being placed for two years in a row in the top 15 of Australia’s Best Place to Work rankings.

Leader in social media

Deloitte is increasingly recognised as a leader in the use of social media. Its micro blogging tool of choice, Yammer, and its intelligent use of Facebook as a recruitment tool, have transformed the way the organisation shares expertise and ideas internally and externally. These social media channels have had a huge impact on problem solving for clients by harnessing the collective wisdom of all our professionals nationally and globally.
Our goal in connecting people is simple: “we want to change our client's capacity to act”. In anticipation of the transition to building a sustainable future our people continue to build their knowledge and expertise in the use of collaborative social media tools.

Diversity

One of the critical success factors for Deloitte’s growth has been its embrace of gender and cultural diversity to win the war for talent in this country. Deloitte has been recognised as an equal opportunity leader for women by the Federal Government’s Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Agency for nine years. CEO, Giam Swiegers is an active member of the Business Council of Australia’s mentoring program which matches CXOs with high potential females from other organisations. He was the only professional services CEO invited by the Sex Discrimination Commissioner, Elizabeth Broderick to join a group of corporate leaders to progress gender equality in Australia’s corporate sector.
Deloitte was recognised in 2010 as an Employer of Choice for Women for the ninth year in a row by the Federal Government’s Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Agency (EOWA)
The Inspiring Women program is a key element in Deloitte’s business strategy.
It is about Deloitte vision of being the professional services firm of choice for talented women by continuing to support and foster the development of talented women within the firm. We do this by:
