Job Description & Summary

PwC has recently launched the South African Technology & Innovation Centre (SATIC), focused on innovating and deploying technology solutions for our global clients. Due to growth through acquisitions, regulatory changes, and globalization, maintaining independence from our audit clients is increasingly critical for PwC.
