PricewaterhouseCoopers looking for recruits to graduate programme

Consulting group PricewaterhouseCoopers says it is looking to recruit almost 300 people.

250 of these will be part of its graduate recruitment programme, while PwC is also looking for 40 professionally qualified people to fill "strategic roles" across the firm.

PwC senior partner Ronan Murphy said the level of recruitment was a reflection of the demand for the firm's services.

PwC said most of the new jobs for professionals would be in its Dublin office at Spencer Dock, but positions were also available in Cork, Limerick, Galway, Kilkenny, Waterford and Wexford.
