About Avanade -
Avanade is the leading provider of innovative digital, cloud, and advisory services, industry solutions, and design-led experiences across the Microsoft ecosystem. The company was founded 25 years ago as a joint venture between Accenture and Microsoft. Back then, digital transformation, automation, and AI weren't mainstream topics—Microsoft was primarily known for Office 365. But Avanade evolved with the times and is now the number one transformation leader within the Microsoft ecosystem. We have a team of 61,000 professionals in 26 countries. We're a truly global company with a strong local presence— what I like to call "GLOCAL": making global impacts on a local level. Our foundation is built on the strength of two powerhouses – Accenture and Microsoft. That gives us the bones, structure, and financial sturdiness of a major enterprise, with robust policies and procedures in place. But what sets us apart is our entrepreneurial spirit – we're fast-moving, agile, and unafraid to think outside the box or question the status quo. And we look for talent that matches that spirit.
