Operate
Be it support with regulation, risk or compliance, Operate delivers. Human-led and tech-powered, it is the backbone of PwC’s unique approach to operational delivery - Execution Managed Services. Harnessing the power of tech and data, we work with some of the most recognisable organisations worldwide, wherever they need us to be. We deliver sustained outcomes through our managed solutions, as well as transforming and running complex operational processes that often create challenges or hinder client progress. Underpinning all of this is our commitment to ensuring our people are equipped with tomorrow's skills to drive success for our clients today.

What you’ll do
Life in Operate is fast-paced and client-focused. It’s also highly rewarding, giving you the chance to work with some of the biggest global brands and develop yourself through our unique skills academy. If you’re a natural problem solver, capable of using your judgement to help our clients stay on the right side of regulation, this could be the role for you.

What you’ll gain
In your first two years in Finance Solutions, you’ll study towards the Accounting Technician qualification from Accounting Technicians Ireland (ATI), with Chartered Accountants Ireland (CAI).

Through this you'll develop your understanding of accounting and business while also developing technical, finance and taxation skills that you’ll apply to your day-to-day work. On completion of the ATI qualification many of our team members progress onto complete the Chartered Accountants Ireland Qualification over the following three years.

What you need
Minimum requirements are 112 UCAS tariff from up to three full A-Levels or equivalent (not including General Studies or Critical Thinking), and a Grade C or 4 or above in GCSE (or equivalent) English Language and Mathematics.

Exams must have been taken in the same sitting and resits are accepted only where modules or papers have been retaken in the same academic year. If you have any extenuating circumstances related to your exam marks or the sequencing of your exams, please declare this on your application and this will be considered as we review your application.

When to apply
Applications for this role may close early should we receive a high volume of interest so we recommend prompt application to avoid disappointment.
