PwC Midlands brings new accounting advisory and Capital Markets team to the region

PwC has created a Capital Markets, Account Advisory and Structuring (CMAS) team in its Midlands hub, marking one the latest people and service investments the Firm has made in the region.

The role of the CMAS team includes helping clients through change whether that be related to accounting, distributable reserves and financial reporting issues, preparing for an IPO or other transaction, or navigating complex accounting and  treasury issues. Having previously been solely a London based team, the move marks the first time the Firm’s service has been delivered by a team located in a region outside of the City.  

The 17 strong team is a mix of accounting professionals recruited largely from the region itself . Since opening its One Chamberlain Square office in 2020, the PwC Midlands hub has seen significant growth and investment in new services and skills to support clients. Developing a regional CMAS team is one of the latest investments in the region by PwC, which also saw the recruitment of 160 graduates in the region and the acquisition of Olive Horse earlier in the year. 

Tom Kirkham, PwC Midlands CMAS regional team lead said:

“The Midlands is the heart of the country and was strategically selected to house the firm’s regional CMAS team due to its proximity to a fantastic range of industries and companies outside of the City, and the young, vibrant local workforce in the region. There is a wealth of knowledge and talent within the region, so building the team here enables us to provide employment opportunities and the skills that will benefit both our clients and communities. We have already established a fantastic team here in the region delivering excellent service to our clients and we are excited by what the future holds as we continue to grow.”
