Qantas is a large airline company in Australia. Qantas has announced that it will cut 850 jobs by the middle of 2027. The company will transfer some office work to a consulting firm called Accenture, which has teams working in India and Australia. The jobs affected are in finance, human resources, marketing, and procurement.

Qantas said it will make these job cuts because it wants to modernise its computer systems and make its business simpler. It also wants to use new technology, including artificial intelligence, and says these skills are difficult to find quickly in Australia. That is why Qantas is working with Accenture, a company with experience in these areas.

The main result of this decision is that many Qantas employees may lose their jobs or have their tasks moved to Accenture. The Australian Services Union, which represents some of the workers, says it wants more information about which jobs will go and when the changes will happen. Qantas says it has talked with the union about its plans.
