Why we’re different

At Capgemini, we help organisations across the world become more agile, more competitive and more successful. Smart, tailored, often-groundbreaking technical solutions to complex problems are the norm. But so, too, is a culture that’s as collaborative as it is forward thinking. Working closely with each other, and with our clients, we get under the skin of businesses and to the heart of their goals – you will too.

Capgemini is proud to represent nearly 130 nationalities and its cultural diversity.

Capgemini views diversity as everything that makes us who we are as an organisation, including our social background, our experiences in life and work, our communication styles and even our personality.  These dimensions contribute to the type of diversity we value the most: diversity of thought.

A note about the consultancy lifestyle

We want to make sure that we find the right people for our teams and consultants – of all specialisms – within Capgemini are often required to work at the client's premises as part of co-located delivery teams. And, this may mean working away from home for part or all of the working week.

Of course, we cover living, travel, and accommodation expenses – but we realise that this lifestyle may not suit everybody.

Diversity

Capgemini positively encourages applications from suitably qualified and eligible candidates regardless of sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion or belief, marital status, or pregnancy and maternity.  We are committed to hiring, developing and retaining the best people to deliver innovative, world-class solutions for our clients.
