Strategy Analyst/Graduate Program 2027 – Melbourne & Sydney
Shape the strategic agendas of leading organisations.
Some graduates want exposure. Some want variety. Strategy is for those who want influence.
At Accenture Strategy, you’ll work on the decisions that determine where organisations go next — how they grow, compete, invest, transform and create long‑term value.
From your very first project, you’ll help senior leaders tackle their most important questions — defining bold strategic direction and turning ambition into measurable outcomes.
Why Strategy at Accenture?
Accenture Strategy sits at the intersection of business, technology and transformation — but what makes us different is what happens after the strategy is set.
Our teams don’t just define direction. We work alongside technologists, operators and transformation leaders to ensure strategy is bold, grounded and executable — so you see how ideas become decisions, and how decisions become change.
Your Impact
As a Strategy Analyst, you’ll:
Structure complex, ambiguous problems with no clear starting point
Conduct rigorous quantitative and qualitative analysis
Build models and scenarios to test strategic choices
Generate insight that informs executive decision‑making
Translate complexity into clear, practical recommendations
Contribute to enterprise strategy and transformation roadmaps

Global Tech Launch at Scale: Designed performance architecture and analytics for a global product launch, enabling 15,000+ orders and a 10x revenue uplift during peak demand.

You won’t be observing this work — you’ll be contributing to it.
