Operations Consulting Role at PwC

At PwC, our people in operations consulting specialize in providing consulting services on optimizing operational efficiency and effectiveness. These individuals analyze client needs, develop operational strategies, and offer guidance and support to help clients streamline processes, improve productivity, and drive business performance.

In sourcing and procurement at PwC, you will focus on optimizing sourcing and procurement processes to drive cost savings, supplier collaboration, and supply chain resilience.
