What if your work could help transform the way thousands of students experience university?
That's the challenge the Student Technology team in Deloitte's Human Capital practice takes on every day. Working with universities across Australia, the team helps clients rethink and redesign everything from student services and digital experiences through to enterprise technology, AI-enabled transformation and the future of learning itself.
For people who are curious, enjoy solving complex problems and want their work to have a tangible impact, it's a team where careers can grow quickly and in unexpected directions.
More than technology
Transforming the student experience takes more than a technology solution. It means understanding how people learn, how universities operate and where processes, systems and services can work better together.
You could contribute to work spanning strategy, experience design, enterprise technology, data, AI, operations and change. That breadth gives you the chance to build new skills while helping solve challenges that matter to students, universities and the wider community.
The variety of experiences I've gained over the last four years has had a huge impact on my professional development. I'm constantly stepping into new challenges, broadening my perspective, and building new skills along the way.
Kiran Ahuka, Senior Manager | Student Technology
A team that values collaboration
Ask our people what stands out most about working in this team and the answer is often the team.
Collaboration shapes how the work gets done. Teams bring together people with experience across higher education, strategy, technology, data, change and operations, so you’re rarely expected to solve a challenge alone.
People make time for questions, share what they know and bring different perspectives to the table. It gives you space to contribute your own expertise while continuing to build new skills, supported by colleagues who want to see you succeed.
In this team, there’s an intentional culture that balances high performance with genuine care for people. Success is shared, challenges are tackled together, and individuals are supported not just in their careers, but as people.
Build a career with breadth
Rather than being confined to a single project type or area of expertise, our people are exposed to a broad range of transformation initiatives across strategy, technology, operations and change.
Because the team works across the full student lifecycle, no two projects look quite the same. One engagement might focus on reimagining the student experience, while another could involve AI-enabled transformation, enterprise technology or large-scale organisational change.
Since joining, I've grown from Manager to Director in less than five years. Joining this team gave me the opportunity to broaden my horizons far beyond a single area of expertise and build a career I hadn't imagined for myself.

Because the team works across the full student lifecycle, no two projects look quite the same. One engagement might focus on reimagining the student experience, while another could involve AI-enabled transformation, enterprise technology or large-scale organisational change.
For many team members, growth isn't defined by a single promotion or career milestone. It's the opportunity to continually learn, gain exposure to new challenges and expand their thinking, while working alongside a team of specialists who are genuinely invested in helping one another succeed.
