At PwC, our people in risk and compliance focus on maintaining regulatory compliance and managing risks for clients, providing advice, and solutions. They help organisations navigate complex regulatory landscapes and enhance their internal controls to mitigate risks effectively.

In treasury risk management at PwC, you will focus on assessing and mitigating financial risks for clients, assisting in effective cash management and liquidity, and optimising capital allocation strategies. You will provide advice in risk analysis, hedging strategies, and regulatory compliance to help clients navigate the complexities of treasury operations.

Focused on relationships, you are building meaningful client connections, and learning how to manage and inspire others. Navigating increasingly complex situations, you are growing your personal brand, deepening technical expertise and awareness of your strengths. You are expected to anticipate the needs of your teams and clients, and to deliver quality. Embracing increased ambiguity, you are comfortable when the path forward isn’t clear, you ask questions, and you use these moments as opportunities to grow.

Examples of the skills, knowledge, and experiences you need to lead and deliver value at this level include but are not limited to:

• Respond effectively to the diverse perspectives, needs, and feelings of others.

• Use a broad range of tools, methodologies and techniques to generate new ideas and solve problems.

• Use critical thinking to break down complex concepts.

• Understand the broader objectives of your project or role and how your work fits into the overall strategy.

• Develop a deeper understanding of the business context and how it is changing.

• Use reflection to develop self awareness, enhance strengths and address development areas.

• Interpret data to inform insights and recommendations.

• Uphold and reinforce professional and technical standards (e.g. refer to specific PwC tax and audit guidance), the Firm's code of conduct, and independence requirements.

A career in Capital Management, within Financial Services Advisory Risk & Regulatory, will allow you to advise financial institutions on continuing to enhance their stress testing capabilities and responding to regulatory feedback. As clients continue to enhance their capabilities, you will help clients to utilize stress testing as an integral tool for risk and capital management and as a driver of core business insights, rather than simply a regulatory requirement.
