Prior to joining PwC, Ciara worked in-house at global investment banks between London, Dublin, Belfast and Abu Dhabi, a legal tech company and at another Big4 professional services firm providing contracting and risk management advice to the UK and Irish consulting business.
Admitted to the New York bar as an attorney-at-law, Ciara graduated from Queen’s University Belfast where she read law. She is also a qualified (non-practising) independent financial adviser where she was FCA-authorised to advise on mortgage and insurance products.
