Job Description & Summary
A career as part of our Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Strategy & Transformation team will provide you the opportunity to work with some of the most
influential organizations in Canada, to help build, shape and integrate ESG into their
business strategy and help our clients make an impact on the lives of their beneficiaries,
clients, and society. The role provides day-to-day leadership both within PwC Canada and with our clients, serving as a strategic advisor, and managing the delivery of outstanding,
high-caliber work. As part of our team, you will play an instrumental role in advising our clients' leadership teams on how to transform their businesses in the face of increasingly complex economic, environmental, social and geopolitical factors.

• Balance day-to-day work priorities and workstreams for multiple clients to deliver projects on time, within budget, and in consideration of resources available.
