=== Early career ===
Suzuki won the bronze medal at the [[2001–02 ISU Junior Grand Prix|2001–02 Junior Grand Prix Final]]. After a successful junior career, she was hampered by her struggles with [[anorexia nervosa]] which began at age 18 when she left home for university.<ref name=AFP091119/><ref name=JT120516/> Her weight having fallen to 32&nbsp;kg, she was unable to jump and missed the entire 2003–2004 season.<ref name=AFP091119/> It took her a year to gain back the weight she had lost.<ref name=AFP091119/>

=== 2004–2005 to 2008–2009 ===
Suzuki returned to competitive skating in the 2004–2005 season after being inspired by [[Shizuka Arakawa]]'s victory at the 2004 World Championships.<ref name=AFP100222/> She began working with coach Hiroshi Nagakubo in the early 2000s.<ref name=JT120516/>

She had a breakthrough in 2007–2008, winning several events, and achieving her highest finish at Japanese nationals since 2002. She consequently received her first senior Grand Prix assignment in 2008–2009, and won the silver medal at the [[2008 NHK Trophy]]. That same season, she also won the [[2008 Finlandia Trophy]] and finished 8th at the [[2009 Four Continents Figure Skating Championships|2009 Four Continents Championships]].

===2009–2010 season===
Suzuki appeared at two Grand Prix events, winning the [[2009 Cup of China]] and finishing 5th at the [[2009 Skate Canada International]].

She qualified for her second consecutive [[2010–11 Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final|Grand Prix Final]], this time finishing fourth.

===2011–2012 season===
[[File:Jielbeaumadier Akiko Suzuki WSFC Nice 2012.jpg|thumb|left|Akiko at [[2012 World Figure Skating Championships|2012 World Championships]]]]
Competing again on the Grand Prix series, Suzuki won the silver medal at the [[2011 Skate Canada International]] and the gold medal at the [[2011 NHK Trophy]].

At the final, she placed third in the short program. She fell twice in the free skating, finishing third overall.<ref name=IN121208/> In December 2012, Suzuki said that the 2013–14 season would be her last.<ref name=JT121225/> She finished fourth at the [[2012–13 Japan Figure Skating Championships|2012–13 Japan Championships]] behind [[Satoko Miyahara]].

Suzuki won the silver medal at the [[2013 Four Continents Figure Skating Championships|2013 Four Continents Championships]], as part of a Japanese sweep of the ladies' event with teammates [[Mao Asada]] and [[Kanako Murakami]] taking the gold and bronze medal respectively. She placed twelfth at the [[2013 World Figure Skating Championships|2013 World Championships]]. At the [[2013 ISU World Team Trophy in Figure Skating|2013 World Team Trophy]], Suzuki placed first; Team Japan placed third overall.

Suzuki won gold at the [[2013–14 Japan Figure Skating Championships|2013–14 Japan Championships]], ahead of [[Kanako Murakami]] and [[Mao Asada]]. She placed second in the short program behind Asada, but rebounded to first place after winning the free skating. She skated two clean programs and earned the highest free skating and total score to date in the ladies' event at the Japan Figure Skating Championships.

At the [[2014 Winter Olympics]], Suzuki competed in the free skating portion of the [[Figure skating at the 2014 Winter Olympics – Team trophy|figure skating team event]], placing fourth in that segment; Japan finished fifth overall.

=== Post-competitive career ===
Following her retirement in 2014, Suzuki began working as a choreographer and teaching with her longtime coach, [[Hiroshi Nagakubo]], at the Howa Sports Land Skating Club in the [[Aichi Prefecture]]. She credited figure skating choreographers [[Shae-Lynn Bourne]] and [[Pasquale Camerlengo]] for inspiring her to start working as a choreographer.<ref>{{cite web|title=I think I started really considering becoming a choreographer after I...|url=https://www.facebook.com/skating.ritmica/photos/a.10151512529273450.1073741834.315913233449/10153015791793450/?type=1&theater|website=Facebook|publisher=Facebook|access-date=21 July 2015}}</ref> Suzuki was also a main cast member of the annual touring ice show [[Fantasy on Ice]], having participated in all editions from 2010 to 2019.
