The skills we look for
The PwC Professional is our global framework for defining and encouraging leadership at all levels.
Know what you’re signing up for
Starting out in your chosen career and everything that comes with that will be exciting, stretching and challenging. But the rewards are well worth it. If you’re ready to invest plenty of effort, commitment, flexibility and passion, we’re ready to give you our full support and we’ll invest in your future.
All routes offer you the same deal. The opportunity to grow as an individual, to meet new people, and build lasting relationships that will stay with you for life. In return we need people who are resilient, willing to work hard, are quick to learn, and who, above all, are passionate about going the extra mile to help our clients.
Bringing out the best in you
Throughout your career, you’ll be supported by the best in learning and development – from specialist seminars, courses and toolkits to informal ‘lunch and learn’ sessions hosted by your peers. Your teammates will show you the ropes, and a People Manager will work with you to guide your career and support you in your learning. And at every stage, progression is based on merit.
