Rachel Taylor, Partner and UK Government & Health Industries Leader at PwC, says:

“As the UK looks towards a fair and green recovery and strives to achieve its goal of levelling up, the industry faces unprecedented change. The pandemic has compounded the challenges that were already presented by digital transformation, climate change and skills shortages. These changes present not only challenges but endless new possibilities and with the right collaboration and innovative thinking we can achieve a truly sustainable economy and transform the way in which services are delivered.

“I’m proud to lead an industry team that cares deeply about the work we do with our Government, public sector, pharma and health clients and is determined to support them as they tackle the challenges and opportunities they face in delivering sustained outcomes.”
