With this internship, Accenture Consulting is offering you the opportunity to become a Thought Leader and to gain experience in the field of Technology & Consulting and to transform your ideas into reality!
Innovation in Financial Services
The way financial service providers serve their customers has changed significantly over the past few years. Changing customer needs, new technologies, digital platforms, and new regulations have shown to be key drivers for the changing way of providing financial services.
Initiatives such as innovation ecosystems, Fintechs and digitalization are threatening traditional business models. Therefore, traditional financial service providers are facing new challenges and increased complexities. How do we see technology change contemporary paradigms? How do banks and insurers deal with new innovations in financial services? And how do these developments influence the way we consume our financial services in the future?

Next to the internship, Accenture offers you the possibility to develop your professional skills. We stimulate our interns to engage in extra activities such as trainings, networking events, and working with other (international) Thought Leaders outside the regular scope of your assignment. At Accenture, the sky is the limit!
