The campaign invites viewers to appreciate the richness and diversity of the Deloitte team, highlighting the 3500 unique and dedicated problem solvers with sharp minds and radical thinking working to provide business solutions to clients in South Africa and Africa.
"This campaign is about the unique and passionate people we employ and how this translates into the depth and breadth of services we offer to our clients," says Stuart Tudor-Owen, head of brand at Deloitte. "We're a genuinely diverse bunch of professionals and passionate about what we do.
The campaign fits clearly with our view that passionate people deliver inspired results."
"We worked to showcase the diverse talent of the staff reflected in activities and interests outside of their working lives - interests which invariably enable them to deliver more inspired solutions at work," adds Dale Hefer, MD of Chillibush.
