Accenture Graduate Jobs and Careers

Working with major businesses in the UK and around the world. Combining technology, innovation and strategy. Learning from your colleagues. Developing sought-after skills. And building a career with one of the world's leading management consulting, technology and outsourcing companies. Accenture offers you greater opportunities, challenges and the chance to help drive business and technology transformation.

Over two years or more of live project work and intense training, you will gain the experience and skills to become a high performer in consulting.  The secret to your success will be the ability to solve complex problems, network well with colleagues and build strong relationships with clients. You'll also need at least a 2.1 degree and 240 UCAS points; if you've got that, you can look forward to a starting salary of £31,500, plus a £10,000 sign-on bonus in your first year and competitive benefits package.

Schemes and Internships
For those of you looking for Placement opportunities, we have plenty to choose from. The Summer Vacation Scheme is eight weeks of intense training for first to penultimate year students. Our six and 12-month Industrial Placements are perfect to gain in-depth business skills, working as a member of the team on live client projects. There's also our partnership with Teach First, to enable you to make a great contribution to education in the UK. Plus we have our very own Boot Camp, a 48-hour action-packed event to give you a full-on experience of life at Accenture. If you impress us in any of these areas, you might even walk away with a full-time offer.

As a graduate within ATS, you'll focus on developing, deploying and maintaining systems and software for international clients. Along the way you'll build advanced skills in technologies such as .Net, Siebel and Java, amongst others. Plus you'll get to work with established leaders like Microsoft, Oracle and SAP, as well as with emerging market trendsetters. Your starting salary is £26,500, plus a competitive benefits package. So if you've graduated in - or soon to be graduating in a technology-related degree, apply now.  

Industrial Placement
Within ATS our 12-month Industrial Placement gives you practical, hands-on experience to the challenges and satisfactions that come from working on real-life solutions delivery.  You'll be making a great contribution to the team and by the end of the placement; you will come away with more than just a year's experience. You'll also have the technical skills, business exposure and understanding needed to work in the team and for our clients. Plus, if you impress us and we've got a business need, we'll make you an offer to come back and join us full-time.

Greater opportunities
Whichever programme you join, the learning you gain from real work will be supported by exceptional training - which includes a comprehensive induction programme into your area of the business - as well as the guidance of our talented people. 

The Essential Skills Series

We know you're learning a huge amount about your degree subject, but academics are just one part of your overall employability. To get a good job - and excel at it - you need more than a good degree. To help you build the tangible skills that employers value, we've created the Essential Skills Series - short films that will help to ensure your move from academic life to the world of work is seamless. Tips, strategies and examples - all designed to give you an insight into what employers are looking for, how you can impress in interviews, and how to make an impact when you start your new career or internship. Couple them with our career-boosting schemes - such as internships, placements and Boot Camp - and nothing will be able to stop you.
