Focused learning and development to become a well-rounded technologist. Roles range from Analysts to Architects, providing specialist knowledge across different areas of the technology lifecycle

The roles our One Deals Technology graduates can expect to focus on are:

Data
Data is at the core of our business, and we need to ensure that it’s collected, stored, prepared, analysed, visualised, interpreted and managed properly. To do this we require a number of specialists across different parts of the data lifecycle.

Development, Build, Test
The process for the deployment of new or updated software typically follows the cycle: development, build, test, release. At each stage of this cycle, specialists are needed to ensure that deployment is successful.

Tech Compliance
PwC operates in a vast number of markets and industries, many of which are highly-regulated and controlled. Professionals specialising in legal standards, risk, quality and compliance are needed throughout our organisation to ensure that the work that we deliver, and the standards to which we hold ourselves, are always of the highest quality.

Our One Deals Technology pathways do not include a professional qualification.

Our Deals practice is more focused than ever on ensuring all colleagues are working towards a sustainable career. We listen to our people and know what’s important to them throughout their career, whether that’s broadening their client portfolios and working towards their next milestone, to understanding how we can better help each other when life inside and out of work is busy. 

We’ve a big focus on empowerment too - our Deals colleagues are required to challenge our clients and senior stakeholders internally and externally, so we’ve developed a suite of tools and training to give that confidence to do this from the start.

We work in an environment where questions are encouraged, challenge is the norm and pride in our work is the goal. This brings our teams even closer together and we want you to be part of this.

With the variety of clients we have a PwC, no two career pathways are ever the same, but you’ll be supported through every milestone of your career, by your manager and local Partner.

There’s more data than ever before, but it is often hard to uncover the value behind the information. This leads businesses to overlook what could be meaningful intelligence. Information that could be the crucial value driver for future mergers, acquisitions, disposals or restructuring activities. As a Deals specialist you’ll help our clients to cut through the complexities arising from too much data and unlock the opportunities, with our industry expertise and using the technology tools available to us.
