The Role

Launch your career while you’re still studying. Take the first step on your way to becoming a management consultant at one of the most impactful #consulting firms for the #digital age.

Your mission

As an intern in Accenture’s Strategy & Consulting unit, you will discover the realms of business consulting and find out how to apply your talents and skills in the “real” world. Gain hands-on experience on how we help enterprises reinvent their business!

You will be part of a highly engaged and diverse team that creates adaptive strategies for companies in times of constant change. By employing top-notch technologies, like AI, we shape new and innovative business models. Explore the topics, the industries, and the projects you can take on, start building your network, and lay the foundation for your professional success.

Duration: 3 – max 6 months (depends on project)

Workload: 100% full time or 80% part time

What awaits you

  • Help us with exciting consulting projects for our clients.
    Did somebody say agile project management? Jump right in and support our team on current projects. You will keep track of who does what, have your colleagues‘ backs, and bring your own ideas to the table.

  • Prepare meetings, workshops, and presentations.
    You will set up (virtual) project meetings, organize workshops, and ensure the documentation is up to date. Once you have acquired more in-depth knowledge of the project’s scope, you will start creating presentations that help our clients make better decisions. That’s the impact interns have at Accenture!

  • Network and keep in touch with the people involved.
    Consulting is a people business – and communication is key. That’s why you will be introduced to all decision-makers and other stakeholders from the very start to ensure you are constantly up to speed on all project matters. If there’s a project-related question coming up, you have all the answers.

Our current focus areas (which might vary)

  • Technology Strategy & Advisory (TSA): support innovation and company transformation through technology.
  • Insurance: provide financial protection against risk to individuals and businesses.
  • CFO & Enterprise Value: drive enterprise value through economic stewardship and strategic assessment of growth risks and opportunities.
  • Capital Markets: help investment banks, asset and wealth managers, and exchanges prepare for the digital future.
  • Banking: find new ways to operate faster, smarter and cheaper.

What we are looking forward to

  • You are majoring in business, finance, economics, natural sciences, or engineering. Even a completely different course of study could be your entry point – psychology, for example!
  • You follow the latest technology trends? People ask you when they want to know about current market developments? Sounds great!
  • You are an open, communicative, and outgoing team player eager to learn.
  • You express yourself clearly and confidently in English and German.

Desirable skills and experience

  • Strong academic background with a completed bachelor's degree or current master's studies.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and financial analysis abilities to support strategic recommendations, with familiarity in industry-specific challenges and emerging trends.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage stakeholders at all levels and build rapport quickly.
  • Commitment, collaborative mindset, and a strong drive to deliver high-quality results, while embracing a dynamic, innovation-driven environment that values diversity, inclusion, and respect for all perspectives
  • Strong interest and experience in consulting or a technology-driven role
  • Proficiency in MS Office tools (excel, ppt, etc.)

Your perks at Accenture

  • Personal mentoring and on-the-job training
  • Extensive learning and development opportunities
  • Exciting employee events
  • Limitless career opportunities
  • A diverse and inclusive work culture
