Strategy& Deals is part of the wider Value Creation and Realisation unit in PwC. It is a fast-growing team with incredible momentum and plays a key role in developing industry expertise across the wider firm - accelerating our ability to deliver client impact
The role
With our significant firmwide investment in Artificial Intelligence, we have a remit to develop more sophisticated approaches and systems to manage information and knowledge across our team. This will allow us to both better capture our existing IP, and strengthen the quality of our insights. This requires a Manager to help oversee the development, build and maintenance of new databases to manage our internal data and 3rd party data sources, including the implementation of AI tools to drive insights from this database. This is where you come in.
Your role would be to lead our Knowledge & Insights function within our team. You would be responsible for formalising and growing this function, which would involve jointly setting a wider strategy and vision for the team, developing and managing systems and databases for internal and third-party insights, and working with internal and external stakeholders (e.g. third-party data providers) to help make the function a success.
If you have the right skills and experience, come and join our successful practice.
This role is pioneering within the PwC Deals practice and there is scope for the role to be a catalyst for similar setups across PwC Deals and the wider firm.
