Deloitte Digital promotes Esan Tabrizi to head of Deloitte Digital

Australia’s leading digital consultancy Deloitte Digital, has announced the promotion of Esan Tabrizi to the head of Deloitte Digital Australia. Tabrizi takes the reigns of the multi-faceted, multi-award winning creative, technology and marketing consultancy after ten years in the business across several leadership roles.

His promotion follows the recent elevation of former Deloitte Digital head, Steve Hallam, to lead Deloitte Consulting’s Enterprise Technology & Performance practice. Under Hallam’s leadership, Deloitte Digital has grown from a business of 400 people to a market leading team of more than 700. Hallam is now looking to take the trend of digital transformation further into the core of an organisation, to help make industries more innovative, sustainable and productive with the intelligent use of technology.

Tabrizi takes over the business with the imperative of accelerating Deloitte Digital’s solutions to address clients’ biggest digital and marketing challenges via a strong focus on innovation and creativity in a post-COVID, digitally accelerated world.

Says Tabrizi: “It’s a massive honour to be taking over the leadership of Australia’s leading digital consultancy. We have an amazing team that is at the forefront of shaping outcomes for our clients and their industries – from financial services and the public sector, to wealth and retail.

“I’m looking forward to building on really strong foundations to continue our market leading position and making an impact that matters.”

Says Hallam: “It’s been an absolute privilege to lead the Deloitte Digital team for the past four-and-a-half years, and to have been part of the firm’s digital growth story for the past 17 years.

“It has been a true honour to work with so many amazing clients and people, and helping our clients succeed in their digital ambitions.

“I’m really excited for Esan, his new leadership group, and a fantastic team, who are going to shape the next wave of growth in digital and marketing innovation in Australia.”

Deloitte Digital’s reputation as a creative, technology and marketing consultancy continues to grow, with the brand achieving a leadership position in the recent Gartner Global Marketing Magic Quadrant, Gartner Global Magic Quadrant for CRM & CX, and with the business in Australia winning Consultancy of the Year from Campaign Asia.

In 2021, Deloitte Digital is also focussed on embedding creative thinking into every aspect of its business and client offerings, and driving a world-first, world class agenda through its ‘Hello New’ brand positioning.

The business was also recently awarded a Cannes Lion for its work on Belong’s Carbon Thumbprint.
