Manager
Accenture experience: 3 years

I joined Accenture in 2007 with 10 years


of industry experience. Having previously
worked for a number of global technology
con­sultancies it was the scale and variety of
their market presence that made Accenture
such an attractive opportunity. For me
it was a move to the big league where I could
work on international projects, state-of–the
art technology, and with expert colleagues
in a global network. I get challenged pro­
fession­ally and can see a clear career path.

One of the great strengths of Accenture is the


focus the company places on its people. We all
have personal career counselors to advise us on
our career progression and provide an outlet
for any questions or concerns. I have also taken
on the role as a career counselor beside my
primary function as technical project leader.
Mentoring others helps develop my skills and
this attitude is an integral part of the company
culture.

At Accenture I only have good and competent


colleagues. What struck me about my colleagues
when I joined the company is how much they
are willing to help each other not just within
the Danish office but globally too. There is never
an issue with sending out an email, or making
a call for advice on a project, and regardless of
the level of the person, you will always get a
response.
