Deloitte believes fully in the value that people with disabilities bring to the corporate workplace, and is all about doing business inclusively – that starts with having diverse colleagues of all abilities.
The company will leverage The Lime Community platform and other connection points to identify university students and experienced professionals interested in exploring career opportunities with Deloitte. In addition, Deloitte Canada’s partnership benefits the professional development of The Lime Network members – supporting the organization’s work in providing tools, self-confidence, community, and connections.
“We are excited about our partnership with Lime Connect! At Deloitte, we foster a work culture that promotes inclusive hiring where one can bring their true selves to work. Each person who chooses our firm should feel included, valued, empowered, and inspired. That’s how people unlock and achieve their potential,” said Carole Mendonca, National Leader of Accessibility at Deloitte.
Andrew Masson, president of Lime Connect Canada’s board of directors, says “Lime Connect is proud to welcome Deloitte to our corporate partner group. Deloitte was named one of the Best Workplaces in Canada by Great Place to Work® in 2023, and they are an outstanding company that strongly complements our existing list of partners. We know that the professional career opportunities they offer will be extremely attractive to our Network members and look forward to realizing much success through our collaboration.”
Deloitte encourages candidates who have disabilities, and an interest in exploring a future with the firm, to apply to attend Lime Connect’s numerous upcoming recruitment receptions across the provinces, and virtually.
Disabled university students and experienced professionals can learn more about Lime’s career, community, and professional development resources; and apply to Deloitte Canada roles directly, by joining The Lime Network Community.
