Who is Deloitte?
• Deloitte provides business and financial related advice with the aim of helping organisations to become
more efficient and ultimately make more money
• An organisation will employ Deloitte as their advisors when their own teams don’t have the necessary
skills and/or experience or when required by law e.g. audit
• Deloitte is broken down into specific departments and, within these departments, people tend to work in
their own specialist field so that they can become experts
• The aim is that any client can approach us with a problem and we can use our knowledge and expertise
to provide them with a solution
