Edge Deals Traineeship

Are you a talented student in the final stage of your study programme? Or have you just completed a master's degree (from a research university)? Are you eager to apply your knowledge of M&A in actual practice? In that case, how about an Edge Deals traineeship with PwC? A flying start to your career! 

 

What will you be doing?

The Edge Deals traineeship gives you the opportunity to develop into an all-round (international) deals consultant within two years. In the course of those two years, you’ll be able to work within four of the nine different competences, thus building up your experience and broadening your knowledge of the various challenges that are relevant at different stages of a transaction process. A learning and development programme will also be customised especially for you to develop your leadership skills and soft skills.

PwC Deals (NL) is part of a wider European and global network of PwC firms, which enables cross-border deals activity. It also draws extensively on the experience and knowledge of thousands of Deals professionals throughout the world.
