Working as a consultant
Detica professions
To enable us to deliver consistent and professional service to our clients, all of our consultants specialise in one of the following professions:
- delivery management
- operations management
- business consulting
- technology consulting
- systems delivery and integration
- data management and analytics
- electronic systems engineering
Your profession will provide you with a clear career path and personal development plan. It will also enable you to gain support from, and share knowledge with, others in the same profession. You will become part of a professional community that works with clients from all sectors, on a variety of different projects. Which profession you specialise in will be agreed with you, depending on your experience, your aspirations and the requirements of the business.
Our business units
As a consultant, you will work on the projects for any one of our business units according to the profession requirements of existing projects. Our business units are:
- Global Financial Services
- Government
- National Security
- Telecoms, Media, Technology and Enterprise
You will be allocated to projects within each business unit depending on your specific profession. Project allocation is carried out across the company and is a delicate balancing of staff availability, skills required by projects as well as staff career development needs. We do need our staff to be flexible about the work they undertake. The majority of our work is done on client sites that may be well away from your base office, and you may work on projects which are not perfectly aligned with your aspirations. However, our rotation policy ensures that you and your aspirations are not forgotten about. The business unit you work in and the projects you work on are continually being reviewed against your aspirations and our business needs.
