Position Summary

Our Deloitte Strategy & Transactions team guides organizations through their most critical moments and transformational initiatives. From strategy to execution, this team delivers integrated, end-to-end support and advisory services spanning valuation modeling, cost optimization, restructuring, business design and transformation, infrastructure and real estate, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and sustainability.

As a Manager, you will operate across two equally dynamic environments: working directly with external clients to navigate complex challenges, seize market opportunities, and drive transformation—and serving as a strategic partner within Deloitte itself, applying the same rigorous consulting capabilities to shape and advance our own organizational priorities. Whether advising a Fortune 500 executive team or partnering with Deloitte's internal leadership, you will bring the same high-impact mindset to every engagement.

The Strategy & Transactions practice is looking for a Manager to join this exceptional team. In this role, you will lead high-stakes, C-suite strategy work, shape enterprise decisions, and grow teams—helping clients and Deloitte alike define where to play and how to win. Apply today!

Recruiting for this role ends 7/31/2026.

Work You'll Do

Managers lead complex transformation engagements across a range of strategy, performance, and transactions-focused challenges – owning the problem-solving agenda and ensuring the work delivers integrated, actionable solutions to our most critical business problems. Managers are accountable for the shaping the so-what – connecting research and quantitative insights to the strategic operating model, and capability implications that matter most to senior decision-makers, whether for an external client or part of Deloitte’s own internal transformation agenda.

This work spans the full range of challenges facing today’s organizations – increasing revenues, reducing costs, accelerating cash flow, improving margins, and transforming operational workflows across people, processes, and technology. Depending on the engagement, a Manager might be orchestrating the workstreams of a large-scale corporate restructuring, leading the strategic assessment behind a major market entry decision, structuring the integration approach for a complex M&A transaction, or steering a high priority internal Deloitte sprint initiative from hypothesis to recommendation. In every context, the Manager is the connective tissue – translating complexity into clarity and ensuring the team’s work lands with impact.

The Manager role offers a mix of client leadership, team leadership, and content leadership, with opportunities to shape C-suite discussions, mentor junior practitioners, and drive meaningful business outcomes. Manager responsibilities:

  • Lead day-to-day delivery of strategy and transformation engagements across client and internal Deloitte contexts – own the pace, quality, and direction of the work from kickoff through final deliverable
  • Oversee multiple workstreams and guide problem-solving, connecting analysis to the broader business, operating model, and transformation agenda—regardless of whether the "client" is external or Deloitte itself
  • Structure and shape executive-level materials that distill complex analysis into clear, compelling narratives – translating insight into action at the C-suite level
  • Manage and develop junior team members, mentoring, coaching, providing real-time feedback, and investing in the growth of the next generation of practitioners
  • Contribute to the commercial success of the practice – support proposal development, participate in client conversations, and help identify opportunities to expand relationships
  • Bring a distinct point of view to every engagement – synthesize across workstreams, anticipate the next strategic question, and elevate the work to actionable recommendations that drive decisions. 
  • Navigate matrix organizations and build influence without direct authority – working across multiple stakeholder groups simultaneously

A successful candidate would possess these skills:

  • Ability to work independently and collaborate as part of a team
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills
  • Meticulous attention to detail and quality of work product
  • Ability to build and sustain professional relationships
  • Ability to lead projects or workstreams
  • Ability to manage and prioritize multiple tasks in a fast-paced and dynamic environment
  • Strong interpersonal skills and professional demeanor
  • Ability to meet deadlines
  • Ability to mentor and provide clear guidance to others

The Team

Our Strategy offering architects bold strategies to achieve business and mission goals, enabling growth, competitive advantage, technology modernization, and continuous digital and AI transformation — for our clients and for Deloitte itself.

Deloitte’s Strategy & Transactions team helps organizations navigate their most complex and high-stakes challenges by working with senior leaders across the full spectrum of strategic, operational, and transactional decision-making. Whether defining where to play and how to win, improving performance and reducing complexity, or navigating a major transaction, the team brings date-driven insights and deep functional expertise to shape strategies, transform operating models, and build the capabilities organizations need to deliver results. This work spans both external client engagements and internal Deloitte priorities – helping organizations at every stage of their transformation journey.

  • We consider candidates on merit and that we provide an equal opportunity to eligible applicants.
  • No one other than designated Deloitte personnel (e.g., a Deloitte recruiter or Deloitte hiring partner) is permitted to extend any job offer from Deloitte.

Anyone who at any time has made or makes any payment to any party in exchange for promises of job or selection for a job with Deloitte or any matter related to this (including those for ‘registration’, ‘verification’ or ‘security deposit’) or otherwise engages with any such person who has made or makes fraudulent promises or offers, does so (or has done so) entirely at their own risk. Deloitte takes no responsibility or liability for any such unauthorized or fraudulent actions or engagements. We encourage jobseekers to exercise caution.
