We’re looking for Summer Interns and Graduates who will start with us in November 2026. 

As an IT or Data Specialist in our Centre of Innovation and Technology (CIT), you will be at the forefront of driving transformative change, leveraging cutting-edge technology and data solutions to revolutionise the way our clients operate on a daily basis.  

As a member of our CIT team, you will quickly find that it is an incredibly diverse sector which offers a wide range of learning opportunities. For example, you will learn to understand and apply IT systems and controls, help build bespoke data solutions and make use of innovative tools to deliver technology enabled audits. You will work closely with leading organisations to support them in developing their business whilst building your technical skills, knowledge and relationships to accelerate your career within the firm.  

A role in this team will involve auditing our clients’ technology to give them assurance that best practice processes and controls are in place, to ensure the success of their technology landscape. It will enable you to understand businesses and solve problems using bespoke and industry-recognised data solutions to extract insights. You will gain a detailed understanding of end-to-end processes and how business applications are utilised, controlled and optimised. Through investigative client-facing work, you will have exposure and regular interaction with a broad range of stakeholders and individuals such as Financial Controllers, Heads of IT, CIOs and Finance Directors.  You will gain a detailed understanding of end-to-end processes, test IT systems and controls and conduct audits covering (but not limited to) infrastructure, Cloud and applications.  

As an Intern or Graduate you will be checking IT systems to ensure they are appropriately controlled by management tools and that the data produced is accurate - highlighting and questioning any deviations when appropriate. You will also perform various forms of data analysis through the use of PwC’s data solutions. Within the firm, you will learn from our Partners, Directors and Managers, to gain valuable technical, commercial and people skills through a wide range of experiences.
