Connect to your Industry

Deloitte LLP is a leading professional services firm employing over 20,000 partners and staff across 23 locations in the UK and generating revenues of over \xc2\xa32.7bn a year. The firm has a large Government and Public Services (G&PS) practice with over 2,500 dedicated partners and staff working across all parts of the public sector including central government, health, education, defence, security and justice, local and regional government and transport.

Deloitte\'s G&PS practice is one of the largest and most experienced providers of professional services to public sector clients in the UK and we are a Strategic Supplier to Government. Purpose and impact are pivotal to our work.

Tasked with managing and supporting the firm\'s public sector bidding activity, the PSBT drives quality and operational improvements on public sector bids and helps the business to win work in a highly competitive marketplace.
