About the role

This role sits within PwC UK's Private Equity Independence team, supporting partners and engagement teams in applying audit independence requirements across complex Private Equity structures. You'll work with large, global PE groups, helping to analyse fund, portfolio and holding‑company hierarchies to ensure the correct independence restrictions are identified and applied.

A core part of the role is maintaining high‑quality data within PwC's Client Entity System (CES), a critical firm‑wide system underpinning independence compliance globally. By ensuring CES accurately reflects client structures, you'll play a key role in enabling the firm to serve its clients confidently while meeting regulatory independence obligations.

What your days will look like:

  • Ensure client entities are correctly structured and classified in CES and evaluating the restriction status of entities within the hierarchy
  • Assess and monitor independence risks across private equity groups, including ongoing changes due to investments, divestments, and restructuring. Evaluate the impact of these changes on the firm's ability to provide audit and non-audit services
  • Initiating independence assessments to maintain the firm's independence of its clients in the context of constantly changing hierarchies
  • Maintaining organisational structures and hierarchy, designing, updating, and managing trackers for accurate monitoring of timelines, tasks, and independence issues
  • Collaborate with internal teams to resolve hierarchy-related queries and support onboarding of new entities.


This role is for you if:

  • Ability to manage and interpret detailed information, ensuring accuracy in independence assessments and documentation.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the confidence to interact at all levels and deliver clear, sometimes challenging, messages.
  • Working knowledge of the PwC's CES system in desirable. Knowledge of private equity structures and independence regulations (FRC, SEC, GIP, etc.) is also desirable, but a willingness to learn and adapt is essential.
  • A conscientious, ambitious team player with strong self-management skills and the ability to take initiative.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, changing regulatory environment and able to adapt to new challenges and priorities

We offer a range of benefits including empowered flexibility and a working week split between office, home and client site; private medical cover and 24/7 access to a qualified virtual GP; six volunteering days a year and much more
