The team
Our Engagement Financial Advisor team, part of Deloitte Services LP, helps internal clients define what they need and how it can be delivered. We work with internal stakeholders to define their projects’ scope in as much detail as possible using advanced financial, budgeting, and forecasting techniques. We provide realistic cost estimates that account for projects’ phases and activities, people, materials, hardware, and software and produce the best- and worst-case estimates using leading-edge project and client management software to keep clients’ projects on track and on cost.
The Engagement Financial Advisor Practice employs a hybrid work model that capitalizes on the benefits of both virtual and in-person experiences by identifying those activities that create the most value for you, your teams, and your clients when performed together in-person. We believe that in-person time is a necessary part of building relationships, facilitating teamwork, and supporting our culture. Currently the ability to travel outside of your Deloitte office location is expected to be up to 10% for in-person training and development opportunities.
