Employee Profiles

Andre, Cyber Security

Something I’ve taken away from this experience is the level of care and effort that goes into the graduate program and beyond at NTT. Positive outcomes are directed from positive experiences and the team I get to work with every day is always supportive of my learning endeavors and project work undertaken. 

Alexander, Project Services

When starting out as a graduate at NTT, people don't expect you to be an expert in your field, although of course a general understanding of a large range of technologies and applications provides a solid foundation for any on-the-job learning. NTT has allowed me to jump in the deep end, whilst providing all of the support I need to thrive within the rapidly growing IT landscape.

Jordan, Cyber Security

Overcoming those first day nerves!

I went through a whirlwind of emotions on my first day. Nervous, scared, and excited. Yet it all immediately dissipated when I met with my manager, got introduced to my team and my ‘buddy’. Throughout the day, I got to have a 1-on-1 chat with each member of my team and I felt immediately welcomed into the strong community at NTT.

I met so many new people throughout the Queensland branch within my first month, and each one of them tried to check-in and see how I was adjusting to the new workspace. 

Max, Digital Workplace

In year 1 of my program I’ve enjoyed first-hand the experience of how NTT can make a real difference for its clients. When I’m on site and explain to end-users the reason for the project and why I’m there, I often hear comments such as "Oh that will help us a lot", which assures me that the work I’m doing actually has an impact that will benefit the client. 

Although much of my time at NTT has been virtual due to COVID-19, I still feel like I’ve had many opportunities to connect and bond with my team as though we are in person. This year the office has opened up and it’s been great to meet with my clients and colleagues face-to-face. I’m also fortunate that NTT provides me with the option of working closely with my manager, team and clients to arrange flexibility around team days in the office, onsite with clients and from home, which is great for work-life balance. 

Krystal, Cyber Security

I first interacted with NTT as part of their 2021 Internship intake, which provided me with an invaluable opportunity to experience first-hand what the culture of NTT is like. It also provided me with the opportunity of speaking with a large range of people with differing experiences and in varying roles – something that I wouldn’t otherwise been able to so easily at the start of my career. Through this I went on to join NTT in their graduate intake in July 2021, starting out in the Professional Services team for Security in Melbourne.

Matthew, Digital Solutions

Some Graduate Pointers:

Remember you have value.
It is important to remember that as a new comer into the industry, you have the fresh ideas and have studied the latest industry trends and technology. NTT openly embraces the value of a new perspective, which is what you can bring along with your foundational knowledge.

Don’t be afraid to have an opinion.
Your ideas need to be heard! Challenging the norm is what drives innovation. NTT is always looking to stay in-front of the curve.

Embrace change.
Technology is always evolving, and as a consultant you'll gain exposure with many different industries. Utilise NTT’s learning culture to continue to upskill and enjoy the diversity of experiences when working with clients. That is arguably the most interesting and rewarding part of the job!

A Day in the Life

Matthew – Digital Solutions

8:00am
Working and coffee culture certainly go hand in hand. This is my first point of call for every morning. The soothing nature of a warm beverage helps me start the day relaxed, and it has the bonus of a caffeine kickstart! 

8:30am
Before any stand-up meetings, I like to hop on and check any emails I have received overnight and review my calendar, so I am aware of my schedule. This is a great way to prioritise your day and stay on top of your workload. As old-school as it might be in the modern age, I write my tasks down, and tick them off as I go throughout the day.

9:00am
Within the first hour or two, I will have a stand-up meeting with my current project team to run through everyone’s work for the day. Although these meetings typically last 10-15 minutes, they are critical to our team’s workflow. All tasks are kept track of on an agile board, so I tend to only take essential notes in these meetings, allowing me to fully focus on listening.

9:15am
Time to start my task for the day! First point of call is to get up the agile board and assign any tasks to myself and set them to the correct status. I log into the current Dynamics 365 environment I am working in and start making changes in the team’s solution.

11:00am
There is some clarification required for some of the development work that is being completed today. We have organised a quick 30-minute call to run through the changes with the client to ensure that the build is meeting their requirements.

12:00pm
It’s time for our Dynamics team meetup! The boarder Dynamics team come together to listen to presentation by team members about work that is going on across our client portfolio. Today I am presenting a piece on Embedded Power Apps and how to improve their efficiency.

1:00pm
After having a bite to eat whilst listening to the other presentations it is back to billable work. 

2:00pm
An afternoon coffee is due, so I have reached out to the grads to see if anyone would like to have a coffee break at the same time. A couple of the available grads and myself head down to a local coffee shop to catch up on the work we have been doing in our areas of the business.

2:30pm
I am keen to close out my tickets for today, so this afternoon I have booked some time into my calendar to get my head down. Key items for today include the automation of email notifications for an internal team when a new record become available in the database.

5:00pm
All work items for today have been finished off. I quickly sort out any admin tasks like updating the agile board and updating my timesheet before logging off. 

6:00pm
It is super important to unwind after a day at work. I like to go for a run in the evening to help clear my mind and get my exercise for the day.

7:00pm 
It’s important to have a collection of interests in combination with work. As a result, I will always try and spend some time on my hobbies in the evening. For me that is usually, playing some guitar, playing some video games with my brother, or going for a drive to find some urban landscapes to photograph.

We believe this is key to what makes us different. We strive to move forward, challenge the status quo, and drive excellence through the technologies we integrate and the services we deliver around the world.

Our Sustainability Ambition

Planet. People. Potential. Partnering for a sustainable world.

Our goal is simple — achieving it is not.

We aim to do more good and less harm. Today’s complex challenges require ambitious solutions that can scale and evolve over time—more connected solutions.

We’re working towards a more sustainable world through our people, our operations and our solutions. Our work as a corporate citizen is guided by the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We’re invested in the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 because we believe that if you live on this planet, you should contribute to its health. The Global Goals, which were launched in 2015, are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030.

NTT is proud to be a Business Avenger for Goal 11 ‘Sustainable Cities and Communities’ goal. We see the role of technology as vital to a future where we can all thrive, where cities and communities are more sustainable, more resilient, safer and more inclusive.

Our commitment:

  • We commit to net zero emissions across our operations by 2030, and across our value chain by 2040.
  • We commit to set science-based targets aligned to the 1.5-degree pathway established through the Paris Agreement.
