Learn more about The Future of Audit.
Introduction
Trust is a valuable commodity. It is not given or kept easily. And when it comes to trust, what matters to stakeholders is changing. They want to know that companies are who they say they are, and do what they say they do. That is why today, organisations are being judged on more than financial performance, with reporting on other areas playing a more important role in building stakeholder trust.
Independent, high quality assurance is increasingly expected. Corporate reporting remains the first port of call for investors trying to understand business performance and prospects - and the risks associated with them.
About the team
Within PwC's Stakeholder Assurance practice, you'll have the opportunity to work with a market leading team and across a diverse portfolio of clients, from owner managed businesses, private equity backed companies, to large multinational and listed groups.
We work with well-known clients across a broad range of clients including FTSE listed, global private companies, private partnerships, funds and Private Equity and Venture Capitalist backed companies. You'll work across a wide variety of industry sectors including:
You'll also have the opportunity to work on global projects, collaborating with PwC colleagues and clients all over the world.
Your Role
The role in Stakeholder Assurance will mainly focus on developing and delivering our Non-financial reporting products, though individuals should expect to deliver non-financial assurance more broadly, including Third Party assurance and Regulatory assurance. Non-financial reporting includes ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance), Sustainability and Climate Change related reporting, key performance indicators, operational performance metrics, regulatory disclosures and other areas where stakeholders of our clients are increasingly seeking to build trust and provide transparency
You'll have the opportunity to:
Responsibilities
Your responsibilities will include:
About you
We're looking for someone who is passionate about the role assurance plays, and who can leverage their experience to challenge existing reporting and build PwCs profile and position in the marketplace. You will have experience in understanding an organisation's risks, risk management priorities, controls, regulatory environment, data, reporting, and the diverse needs of its critical stakeholders. This experience could be gained through external audit, internal audit or risk management.
Essential skills and experience
To succeed in the team, you will have a demonstrable skills and experience as follows:
