Job Description & Summary
Our EMEA International Tax, Legal & Workforce Academies have been a consistent backbone of technical and network development for many years. Between the Foundation, Intermediate and Advanced academies each year, almost 2,000 PwC people engage in a flagship experience of being part of a global network. The academies not only deliver on high quality technical training, but also expand the broader business skills of our people, and create a platform for networking and leadership engagement.
They are designed to complement the learning and interaction which is already available in-territory by providing interactive and engaging development solutions in an international environment with a x-border focus. The consolidated approach across Service Networks, Industries and territories has also facilitated economies of scale on L&D development. Feedback from participants is consistently high and there is a clear desire to continue an approach that delivers on the current Academy experience going forward.
Role Overview:
We are looking for someone to lead the EMEA L&D curriculum and team that delivers at these Academies. In this role you are responsible for the content development, quality, organisation and delivery of the EMEA L&D programme for Tax, Legal & Workforce (TLW) across the professional levels within PwC EMEA Region. This involves excellent stakeholder management skills, as there is a need to manage and align multiple stakeholders across different territories, and requires a global mindset and inclusive approach.
The role requires the management of multiple and sometimes competing interests and priorities from stakeholders and business needs (such as net zero commitments), and the ability to generate consensus and agree shared principles / ways of working.
The content of the Academies is prepared and generated in close cooperation with the Tax, Legal & Workforce specialist groups (including industry groups) within the PwC network. Tutors for the programmes are generally derived from these specialist practices (i.e. they are SMEs from the business).
Whilst the Academies in their current form are incredibly successful and valued by the EMEA region, going forward there is a strong need to identify and embed more technology solutions into the programme to enhance the current learning experience of participants and enable efficient delivery of training programs. This will allow the programme to stay abreast of industry trends and emerging technologies such as GenAI. Business acumen and developing our people to have broader discussions with our clients and work x-LoS to help solve client problems will also be a focus in the coming years. It remains open as to the form we deliver these programmes in the future, as the need to ensure quality in delivery must be balanced with competing interests such as cost, access of the programmes to all staff in EMEA, and the PwC commitment to net zero.
In this role you report directly to the Chair of the EMEA TLW Leadership team, who sits on the EMEA Executive Leadership Team representing the TLW business.
Main responsibilities:
The role is complex in nature and consists of diverse responsibilities and roles, hence the broad skill set needed. Below you will find the various priorities for the role. The role will need to oversee the design and development of cutting-edge training programs that incorporate the latest advancements in Tax Legal and Workforce practices, as well as emerging technologies. The curriculum is required to reflect the needs of the organisation and the evolving industry landscape. It requires technical knowledge to some extent - whilst the ownership of the course content is with the SME of the various TLW pillars, the EMEA L&D Lead should review content and provide feedback when and where necessary to ensure quality control, alignment, & consistency of the Academies.
The role involves overseeing the PwC EMEA TLW Academies - which provide tailored content for tax, legal and workforce attendees aligned to specific networks. They are open to all EMEA employees and delivery is led by the TLW service networks and industries. Going forward, as mentioned above, we will need to develop and implement initiatives to upskill and reskill our people, ensuring they are equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to adapt to changing industry landscapes such as the use of and embedding of AI into the practice.
Responsibilities from a strategic and leadership point of view include:
Responsibilities relating to the organisation of the Academies:
Responsibilities relating to ongoing projects, each reporting to different stakeholders:
