 At PwC, our people in strategy consulting focus on providing strategic guidance and insights to organisations. They analyse market trends, assess business performance, and develop recommendations to help clients achieve their goals. These individuals work closely with clients to identify opportunities for growth, optimise operations, and enhance overall business performance. As a corporate and business strategy consultant at PwC, you will analyse client needs, provide consulting services across different strategic areas, and offer guidance and support to help clients develop and implement effective strategies that align with their business objectives and drive growth.
 <br/>
 <br/>
 <strong>
  What does this role entail?
  <br/>
  <br/>
 </strong>
 Our Strategy platform helps clients align business goals with enterprise-wide strategies, investments, and operating models. From shaping functional strategies to driving transformation at scale, the platform enables teams to deliver high-impact, insight-led outcomes. Whether advising on growth, cost, customer experience, or digital transformation, Strategy provides the strategic backbone for driving profitability, competitiveness, and market differentiation.
 <br/>
 <br/>
 Our Strategy Consulting professionals' partners with global clients to design and execute complex transformation programs that drive measurable business impact. Senior Associates play a critical role in supporting delivery across engagements, bridging the gap between business and technology and translating client priorities into executable digital and operational solutions.

 <strong>
  Competency Overview: Enterprise &amp; Functional Strategy
  <br/>
  <br/>
 </strong>
 Enterprise &amp; Functional Strategy (EFS), a key pillar of the Strategy platform, reshapes enterprise costs to fuel growth.

EFS also embeds adaptive, cross-functional strategies to outperform market shifts - developing and executing go-to-market (GTM) strategies, market entry strategies, enterprise growth strategies, and boldly transforming front, middle, and back-office functions.
 <br/>

 <br/>
 <br/>
 Depending on the project, you will be involved throughout the project life cycle, adding value during the problem structuring and analysis phases. Responsibilities include understanding client&rsquo;s capabilities, business context, assessing current organization structure and operating model, conducting end-to-end value chain diagnostics to unlock levers that can produce sustained performance improvement.

We meet our clients where they are. We provide tailored, cost-conscious company formation services and strategic counsel at the earliest stages &mdash; and scale up rapidly to meet the most complex challenges companies ever face, providing practical commercial advice to help clients make smarter and stronger moves to meet their business objectives.<br>
<br>
As the only global law firm present in all key US and global venture and growth capital hubs &mdash; from the Bay Area, Austin, and Boston to London, Hong Kong, and Singapore &mdash; we advise on hundreds of emerging company financings totaling billions of dollars every year. Drawing on deep relationships with the world&rsquo;s leading venture capital and growth equity firms, we connect investors with innovators to fuel growth through a variety of financing structures, from angel and seed investments to structured debt and equity solutions. We work to find the best strategy for whatever comes next.<br>
<br>
From the outset of our engagement with an emerging company, we draw on our strength as the world&rsquo;s leading capital markets and M&amp;A firm to position each client for an optimal liquidity event consistent with the client&rsquo;s goals. Just as emerging companies are constantly innovating and pushing the envelope, we are constantly innovating to support their developments. For example, we have helped our clients pioneer new ways to go public, such as through direct listings and deSPACs.<br>
<br>
Our instinctive knowledge of what comes next, our global vantage point, and our multidisciplinary collaborative culture mean we are more than an advisory partner; we are an extra engine of growth to help drive our clients&rsquo; growth.
