PwC has boosted its Midlands team with over 400 promotions across the region, including eight partners, seven directors, 33 senior managers and 57 managers.
The promotions highlight the investment the firm is making in its senior leadership team in the region and reflects the firm’s growth driven by demand for services including transformation, deals, technology and ESG.
Speaking about the promotions, Matthew Hammond, PwC’s Midlands region leader, said: “Our people have worked incredibly hard over the past year and the promotions reflect our commitment to putting our people first and creating an environment for them to develop and grow.
“The competition for talent remains hot, recognition and reward has never been more important, alongside Our Purpose, values and culture. I congratulate everyone who has taken their next career step forward with the firm.
“In the last two years, we have grown our teams to over 3,300 people across the Midlands with a breadth and depth of skills in all our lines of services. The move to One Chamberlain Square in 2020 represented the firm’s largest investment outside of London, and we have bolstered our position amongst the region’s professional services businesses.
“With the upcoming Birmingham Commonwealth Games and investments being made across the region, it is a great time to build a career in the Midlands.”
The promotions follow the recent announcement that over half of PwC’s 20,000 employees in the UK will receive a 9% pay rise, and 70% would get a rise of 7% or more.
