About the team & role
Capital Markets (CM) advises companies on important deals - initial public offerings (“IPOs”), significant acquisitions or divestments and raising capital through debt or equity issuances. We are specialists in the UK and US capital market regimes and providing assurance and advice in connection with the financial reporting aspects of these deals, including financial projections, financial reporting procedures and offering documents.
PwC is the market leader in providing assurance on these deals, working on many high profile transactions. We provide services that our clients and their other advisers depend on. It’s both a responsibility and a privilege to guide our clients through moments that matter deeply to them. Our breadth of clients in an ever-changing market means we need to be agile – responding when we need to, in a way that really makes a difference. We are looking for people with the interpersonal skills needed to develop trusted relationships with clients and work alongside them to help solve their issues.
At PwC we work on some of the best deals in the market and pride ourselves on our inclusive culture, wellbeing and development. This is underpinned by a blend of home/office working and empowered flexibility as a firmwide policy. We are a supportive and collaborative team, and empower and trust our people to work independently but with coaching and guidance as needed. Consultation is a core part of our culture and our partners and directors work closely with more junior team members to share knowledge and experiences.
We understand that a culture of flexibility is at the heart of work/life quality for our people. Our everyday empowered flexibility, vacation and holiday policies support our commitment. Our programmes, benefits and resources are designed to help working parents meet the dual demands of family and career, and many of our team are working parents.
We support an inclusive culture by acknowledging the unique experiences and perspectives each individual brings to the table, with our team representing a number of different backgrounds and cultures.
