Join our community of solvers in cultivating a collaborative workplace driven by unique perspectives. We’re proud PwC Canada advances a culture that helps everyone thrive. It’s one of the reasons we’re recognized as a top employer in Canada. As you build a career with purpose and build meaningful connections that’ll last a lifetime, you’ll work with people from diverse backgrounds and industries to help solve important problems, powered by the latest technology, to turn today’s ideas into tomorrow’s solutions.

PwC Canada is committed to cultivating an inclusive, hybrid work environment – one that is collaborative, supportive and productive. We work in-person and virtually, as is best suited for our clients, teams and people.  We want you to be intentional with your work, how you do it and where it’s done. PwC offices are hubs of connectivity and learning. We strongly encourage our people to prioritize in-person work, whether it’s in the office or at a client site. This means we expect you to be in-person (either with clients or in the office) at least half of your time.

We know that hybrid work is all about balance, and capturing the benefits of in-person work is essential to your growth at the firm. Exact expectations for your team can be discussed with your interviewer.
