Our client base spans three categories including Global PE, European PE, and Midmarket firms—each requiring a tailored approach. Global accounts demand coordinated international coverage and all three value agility, regional collaboration, and sector depth. Across all segments, Account Managers ensure that PwC’s capabilities are connected and that clients experience a consistent high‑quality relationship. Your ability to navigate the complexity of the PE market and understand our clients’ modus operandi will be a critical success factor in this role.

• Supporting Key Account Services: Coordinate rate card and MSA reviews connecting with expert teams to deliver seamless client service.
• Leveraging Internal Networks & Technology: Utilize internal expertise and tools like Salesforce to ensure accurate data collaboration and efficiency across the client portfolio.
• Enhancing Client Reporting & Feedback: Deliver timely reporting, value reports and feedback loops to keep client insight central to all activities.

This role is for you if :

• Private Equity / Deals Expertise: Experience in Private Equity or transaction‑based environments with strong knowledge of professional services and the PE lifecycle.
• Background in Account Management Excellence: Proven track record in B2B account management implementing both strategic and tactical initiatives effectively.
• Strong stakeholder communication: Exceptional communication skills and gravitas when engaging senior stakeholders, clients and internal leadership.
• Sales & CRM Knowledge: Understanding of sales methodologies for building client relationships; familiarity with CRM platforms (Salesforce preferred).
• Attention to detail & creativity: High attention to detail in producing accurate client‑facing materials while using creativity to convey key business messages to diverse audiences.
• Proactive & collaborative: Self‑starter who manages own workload to deadlines while contributing as a collaborative team member.

What you’ll receive from us :

No matter where you may be in your career or personal life, our benefits are designed to add value and support recognising and rewarding you fairly for your contributions.

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.
