Over the next five years, PricewaterhouseCoopers said it would increase its presence in India and create 30,000 new jobs. "PwC in India expects to grow its talent pool to 80,000 over the next five years," the company stated in a Monday statement. The country currently employs over 50,000 people.
For a number of years, PwC has been gradually expanding its presence in India. According to the company, PwC India will open three new offices in Bhubaneswar, Jaipur, and Noida in 2022 to focus on hiring "local, highly skilled talent."
PwC India launched The New Equation in 2021 as part of its new global strategy to boost economic growth, capitalize on the potential of the domestic market, and create more opportunities for society.
“We are committed to playing a meaningful role in India’s growth story and are working closely with clients and stakeholders to help solve important problems and create avenues towards a very bright future for our country. Our new venture is just one step forward in this direction and will further attempt to harness India’s vast demographic dividend. India is a strategically important geography for the PwC Network. We will continue to focus on enhancing our local capabilities and capacities. In terms of opportunities for both campus recruits and experienced professionals, this is a great time to join a globally inclusive team of talented professionals and gain skills for becoming future-ready," said Sanjeev Krishan, Chairperson, PwC.
