Do you want to engineer modern businesses to improve everyday life?
Businesses today are having to navigate greater levels of uncertainty, market volatility and ever increasing customer expectations.
We are the consulting team causing an impact in our region’s largest organisations because we link business needs, technology possibilities, customer and employee expectations and data intelligence rather than expecting the client to do it, and because we have 340,000+ engineers globally to help make our advice practical.
Cognizant is barely twenty years old in ANZ but with the addition of Servian, Contino and Softvision and experienced talent, Team Cognizant is shaking up the market of big 4, digital boutiques and technology advisors.
We invite you to come on board at this exciting time to shape and lead major engagements in Retail and Consumer Goods.

- Facilitating their future design, orchestrating how Cognizant and its partners deliver that outcome and helping the client get value from it
A Digital Business Consultant with a focus on a sector is a critical role within Cognizant Consulting. You will lead the shaping and delivery of major projects for clients in Retail, Consumer Products and Services like Hospitality and Travel.
