PwC seeking to appoint over 1,000 technology specialists for dedicated UK Risk Assurance business by 2020
PwC’s UK Risk Assurance practice is on track to recruit more than 1,000 technology specialists over the next four years in order to meet increasing client demand for digital, regulatory and cyber security services.
The new recruits will work across all industry sectors in London and the UK regions, helping clients address a broad range of issues including cyber security and privacy (eg threat and vulnerability management), data (eg data management and predictive analytics), business systems (eg SAP) and technology risk and controls (eg IT risk and resilience).
This recruitment drive builds on PwC’s earlier announcement regarding plans to hire more than 1,000 data scientists to its Deals business on a global basis, and further highlights the firm’s commitment towards investing in technology following recent acquisitions such as Praxism (a consultancy specialising in identity and access management).
