In Deals we solve the important problems that stand in the way of value being created, sustained, realised or protected for our clients – working together to aid responsible recovery and growth. Working on iconic deals with national and global clients, we put together major mergers and acquisitions and resolve business crises – from international take-over bids to financial crime investigations and cases of insolvency. We draw upon our deals experience across many industries to support and partner with our clients, to positively impact society and the communities in which we operate.

Programme

Our summer internships offer students invaluable insight into PwC's business and culture. You'll have the opportunity to experience work and life at PwC, and collaborate with both graduate trainees and experienced professionals on real client projects. The opportunities to learn and grow are unrivalled – so be prepared to get stuck in.

What you'll do

In your first couple of years, you’ll get as much exposure to different clients and challenges as possible. You will experience up to three of our business areas within Deals.

Within Business Restructuring Services, this can involve liaising with creditors and all kinds of stakeholders, which calls for tact, sensitivity and assertiveness. And you'll see more than just the finance side of things too. We often have to look at all the factors which may affect the business, both internal and external, and how these can affect a company’s recovery. Whether you're researching, modelling, writing reports, analysing data or developing options and recommendations, your work could well help rescue a business – perhaps saving jobs and ensuring the company can meet its financial obligations. We’ll also give you opportunities to assist the administrators in trading insolvent businesses where you’ll get a chance to take an active role in managing customer, supplier and employee relationships.

During your time in Corporate Finance you will support the provision of a range of financial advisory services, from acquisitions and disposals for corporate and private equity clients, to advising your clients on infrastructure, energy and public sector projects

In Forensic Services, you'll help clients get to the bottom of particularly complex business issues.You’ll pick up unique experience in a team that’s committed to quality. You'll work with other trainees and experienced professionals, creating lasting friendships and building strong networks.

What you'll need

You’ll need to be in your penultimate year of an undergraduate or postgraduate degree; or you’ll need to be in your final year of an undergraduate degree with a one year postgraduate place confirmed; and you'll need to have achieved or be on track to pass an undergraduate degree or above in any subject. We determine whether you're on course to pass based on the grades you achieved in your last completed year of academic study.
