EMPLOYMENT REPORT 2020
The fourth industrial revolution, or “Industry 4.0”, in which digitalization and globalization are nurturing change at a pace never previously seen, requires specialist skills to be supplemented by holistic insights and a capacity for adaptation. These will be key success factors for anyone in the professional world in the 2020s and onward. Additionally, innovative solutions to complex challenges will come from close teamwork across different areas of expertise, telling us that relationship building is another key skill.
As corporate partner to SSE, Deloitte is involved in several activities, most prominently the SSE Business Lab, where a few chosen start-ups get our advice on running a business, and the Finance Transformation Lab, where students work on a case in shaping the finance function of the future. Constant collaboration with corporate partners, state-of-the-art program content and the recent establishment of Global Challenges, underpins the clear ambition to have students apply their knowledge in practice and prepare them for the requirements faced when embarking on their professional journeys.
Graduates from SSE are strong representatives of the Millennial generation, with high expectations of their future employers’ ability to offer a challenging and rewarding career, while, to an equivalent extent, expecting no compromise in areas such as ethics and sustainability. Their education from SSE, high level of ambition and strong will to make substantial investments in their careers, will make them extraordinarily well prepared to contribute to organizations in the era of Industry 4.0.
