      Job Description & Summary

      At PwC, our people in finance consulting specialise in providing consulting services related to financial management and strategy. These individuals analyse client needs, develop financial solutions, and offer guidance and support to help clients optimise their financial performance, improve decision-making, and achieve their financial goals.

      In financial operations at PwC, you will specialise in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of financial operations within organisations. Your work will involve assessing financial processes, identify areas for improvement, and design and implement solutions to streamline financial operations, enhance controls, and reduce costs. You will be responsible for providing guidance on financial systems implementation, process automation, and financial shared services.

      Focused on relationships, you are building meaningful client connections, and learning how to manage and inspire others. Navigating increasingly complex situations, you are growing your personal brand, deepening technical expertise and awareness of your strengths. You are expected to anticipate the needs of your teams and clients, and to deliver quality. Embracing increased ambiguity, you are comfortable when the path forward isn’t clear, you ask questions, and you use these moments as opportunities to grow.

      • Respond effectively to the diverse perspectives, needs, and feelings of others.

      • Use critical thinking to break down complex concepts.
      • Understand the broader objectives of your project or role and how your work fits into the overall strategy.
      • Develop a deeper understanding of the business context and how it is changing.
      • Use reflection to develop self awareness, enhance strengths and address development areas.
      • Interpret data to inform insights and recommendations.
      • Uphold and reinforce professional and technical standards (e.g. refer to specific PwC tax and audit guidance), the Firm's code of conduct, and independence requirements.

      As part of the FAMS Controllership team you are expected to act as an extension of our clients' business office. As a Senior Associate you are expected to analyze complex problems, mentor others, and maintain top standards.
