Graduate Programme 2019 pwc.ie/mygraduatelife

IntroductionEvery graduate knows how important training, mentoring and exposure to clients are. That’s why most employers offer those exact things.

The truth is, at PwC we bring this to life by offering you industry-leading development opportunities, total support in obtaining professional qualifications and the opportunity to work with some of the most fascinating clients in the world.

But what makes us different is our focus on the real-life world of work. We’ll make sure you build those invaluable personal skills to be able to see beyond what’s in front of you; the little things nobody tells you about, the things most people only learn from years of painstaking experience.

Like charging your laptop. Remembering your access card. Setting two alarms. The things that will set you up for success and give you additional confidence.

We’ll give you skills clients demand and priceless insights that will make your graduate life exceptional.

An organisation is only as good as its people. That’s why PwC seeks out the best and brightest graduates to join us every year.

My father told me, pick a career and a place to work that will give you a great grounding and set you up for life. Having worked here since I finished my degree at UCD, I believe a graduate career with PwC is the passport to your future. There is no better place to start your graduate life and a lifelong journey of development and discovery.

I am amazed every year at the calibre and diversity of the people who join our graduate programme. Each new generation brings fresh energy and enthusiasm, and I think that is what makes PwC such a great place to work.

We are facing a future full of disruption and technological change. We need your help to evolve and keep our clients at the cutting edge of their industries. We want enterprising, passionate and bright people from all backgrounds. The attributes and dedication you bring will continue to make us the best.

In return for your commitment to us, we commit to help you develop the skills that you’ll need to succeed, as well as supporting you to become the best that you can be inside and outside of work.

I’m personally looking forward to welcoming you to our firm and working with you.

Welcome

Feargal O’Rourke Managing Partner, Dublin, PwC Ireland

Develop real insights into every aspect of the companies we work with and give them informed advice on their sector, their people, their technology and their finances. We work with a diverse range of organisations, from start-ups to global corporations, including many of Ireland’s top 100 companies.

If you are able to adapt to new challenges and have a hunger to always learn new things, a graduate role in Assurance is for you.

Assurance

Aimee Desmond – Assurance (Cork)“If you’re willing to work hard, you get the support of your team and your managers to pursue your interests, in and out of work. There are so many young people who work here and we all have a similar mindset. At PwC, I’ve met some of my best friends.”

Use your knowledge and problem-solving skills to help our clients solve their complex tax challenges. We work with the biggest and most exciting businesses, across all kinds of industries. You’ll gain insight from the frontline so that you can make a difference to your clients’ bottom line.

If you want to work in a fast paced, intellectually challenging field that never stands still, tax is the place for you.

Tax

Aniekeme Samuel – Tax“When you start a job, you don’t always see the big picture. But as it goes along, you can really see your contribution and the value it adds. The people you work with are really friendly and motivate you. They don’t expect you to know everything from day one. It can be daunting when you arrive, but there is always someone there to help you. You learn on the job really quickly.”

Advise businesses about how to enter new markets, manage organisational change and create technology strategies. We help some of the biggest companies refine and enhance their operations and performance, in the areas of strategy, management consulting, technology and risk consulting.

Working in PwC Consulting, your communication skills and ability to advise will help bring fresh insight to our clients and the issues they face.

Consulting

Mathieu Naillon – Consulting“The one thing that really surprised me about PwC is that teams are really teams. Not having come from Ireland I find it very cool that you feel like you’re part of a mini family already. From day one everyone has your back; if you have a problem you can just put your hand up and say ‘Here, something is going wrong, I need help.’ It’s very supportive.”

PwC Ireland will help you develop invaluable personal skills, unique insights, professional accreditation and work with some of the most fascinating clients in the world. You’ll build your knowledge, an impressive network of contacts and an exceptional career.

It’s a place to grow and make a difference.

Your progress is our priority. From the get go, you’ll be working with clients, learning from your team, sharing your unique perspective and making a difference.

The work you do will be as varied and interesting as the clients you’ll work with.

You can expect to work with the biggest brands in Irish and international business, building strong relationships and getting the chance to learn from the best.

Our graduate programme is the ideal launching pad for your career. From gaining a professional qualification to international secondment opportunities; when it comes to your development, the only limit is your desire to grow.

Why should I

choose PwC?

There are no two career paths the same at PwC but one thing that defines all of them is choice. You’ll get the opportunity to work in a variety of areas that you’re interested in. You can build on your own unique strengths, or choose to stretch yourself in a completely new field.

We want your individual talent to shine wherever you decide you can add the most value. Whichever area you choose to work in, you’ll work with people from different backgrounds, with different skill-sets and different types of expertise.

It’s full of opportunities for people like me.

It’s more than a place to work.

We know that work is just one part of your graduate life but PwC is so much more than just a good career move. We want you to bring your whole self to work, every day. We won’t lie to you, we expect you to work hard and meet your deadlines. But in turn you’ll get to build up your overtime and use it to take time off, or take extra pay.

You’ll be starting alongside over 300 other graduates in the exact same boat as you. You’ll learn from each other as much as you’ll learn from us, and make some life-long friends along the way.
