Career development
Colleagues talking at work

Our people are front and centre of who we are and what we do. At PwC we’ll invest time in your development and ensure you can prioritise this in your role. 

As well as giving you access to professional and technical development programmes and supporting you with on-the-job coaching, we’re passionate about developing you as a leader. This means from the early stages of your career you’ll have the opportunity to attend our flagship leadership development programmes where you’ll learn and network with peers from across PwC.

 

Developing you for today and tomorrow 

As the skills our people need continue to shift, the learning and development we offer continues to reflect this. We have a range of resources and programmes available to all of our people, designed to support them in being the inclusive, quality driven and knowledgeable community of solvers we need.

Access the content you need when and where you need it. You’ll have access to our interactive global learning platform, which includes a wealth of highly personalised learning content. You can choose from a range of online resources, build and share learning playlists and receive personalised recommendations for future learning. All of our on-demand learning is mapped to our PwC Professional development framework to support your career progression.

Shape your development journey in a way that works for you. You’ll have access to a variety of types of learning that are tailored to your needs ensuring you have the opportunity to learn how to use and apply digital tools where relevant. You’ll combine elements already available through our learning platform, with the best tech training and learning resources the network has to offer, from podcasts to games to classroom learning. 

We’ve also invested in ESG upskilling. From new online training available to all, to targeted programmes like our Climate in Action course, our ESG programmes are designed to give those with foundational knowledge further skills to engage with and support our clients in responding to the sustainability challenges they face.

We're making a huge investment in our people's digital skills, ensuring they have cutting edge tech tools at their fingertips, making it easier for all of us to collaborate on and share new and innovative solutions that make a real difference for our business and our clients.

Our ‘Digital Accelerators’ are a community of people we've created to lead and drive change throughout our firm. We currently have 600+ Digital Accelerators across PwC and this community continues to grow as we train more of our people each year. We provide structured in-person and self-directed training, to equip our people with the skills, knowledge and tools to kickstart the next phase of our digital transformation. 

Whether you're starting with the basics, using it for problem-solving, or enhancing your technical specialist skills to meet client needs, we offer a range of comprehensive Generative AI (GenAI) upskilling programmes for each stage of your career. 

Tailored to your role and development needs, all of our people have access to a wealth of Gen AI learning opportunities - through interactive workshops, immersive learning modules, or related accreditations and certificates. 

Everyone is allocated a dedicated Career Coach who’s there to discuss performance, coaching, development, well-being, and to help guide you in your career journey.

Our in-house executive coaching team provides 1:1 executive coaching and group coaching to support individual and business goals. Coaching is focused on creating a space to reflect on: maximising potential, enhancing relationships, developing knowledge and skills, and taking control of growth throughout your future and career. 

Everyone has access to a wealth of resources, including online guidance, tools and self reflection exercises to help you navigate and progress your career, as well as manage your self development.
