2026/2027 Intern | Corporate Finance & Transactions | Auckland

By starting your career at Deloitte, you are joining a community of hard working and engaged professionals who enjoy ‘making an impact’ in the work they do. With our national office footprint, global connectivity, supportive and inclusive culture, and technology enabled ways of working, you'll have the opportunity to learn and experience what a career in professional services looks like.  

An intern role at Deloitte is a great opportunity to spend your summer getting a feel for what working for Deloitte would look like. You start with a cohort of people who are typically entering their penultimate year of study, and are wanting to obtain hands-on experience working in a field they are interested in pursuing after graduation. People at Deloitte are great at what they do and learning from high-performers is a fantastic way to kickstart your growth and career.  

Deloitte is committed to staying at the forefront of innovation, including the integration and responsible use of artificial intelligence (AI) in our solutions. We value adaptability and a growth mindset, recognising that AI is transforming the way organisations operate. By joining us, you’ll have the opportunity to develop skills that prepare you for the future of work and contribute to shaping how technology drives meaningful impact. 

Interns have a two-day induction in their local office to understand the corporate environment, what the expectations are, and the role of interns at Deloitte. The internship runs from mid-November (following university exams), has a three week break over Christmas and New Years, and finishes early February before you head back to your final year of university. You will be part of a cohort of 150+ others, all learning collaboratively and building a foundation for your career.    

Once you sign your contract with Deloitte, you will start the internship in November of that year. Between the application process and your start-date, we have a number of touchpoints including a team member staying in touch with you, so you feel part of Deloitte before your first day.    

A number of our interns receive a graduate contract at the end of their internship meaning they have secured a job for after university and do not need to apply through the graduate recruitment process! Internships are only available to people with one more year of study. If you are in your final year of study don’t worry – we also hire a number of graduates who didn’t complete internships. For more information about our available roles, see our website.
