Michael Gibbons

Mike is Head of People for PwC’s UK Deals business, where he is responsible for the formulation and execution of our Deals People Strategy.

As a client facing partner, Mike is an accomplished programme leader and major projects specialist, with significant international experience advising business leaders on their toughest programmes, covering: regulatory challenges, transformation, remediation assignments and global audits. He has significant experience supporting clients in the financial services industry, particularly in the design, set-up and leadership of programmes in the anti-financial crime domain.

Equipped with over 20 years of project experience, Mike has gained notable expertise in advising clients on complex programmes that have a large operational dimension to them - often utilising service delivery centres and large near/off-shore teams - and in this regard he draws on the skills he has gained in industry as a Chartered Mechanical Engineer to bring a practical and tailored approach that's focused on delivering outcomes.

Mike leverages this distinctive experience in his role as Execution Managed Services (EMS) Leader for Deals, where he leads teams who support clients to solve complex problems and get things done by deploying PwC's unique approach to operational delivery. This approach combines deep domain experience and technical expertise that spans the full breadth of our UK Deals business, with data and technology capabilities alongside PwC's ability to 'operate and run', to support clients deliver projects or programmes, or run complex business as usual functions.
