Audit and consulting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers India (PwC India) has opened its new flexible, multi-use office in Jaipur, Rajasthan.
The main objective is to source the immense talent and potential that the state offers and also to serve clients in the region.
The Chairman, PwC India, Sanjeev Krishan said, “Our talent pool is no longer centred in metro cities, and we are looking to leverage the wealth of skilled professionals in other cities too. Jaipur’s rich education system produces a large number of CAs, engineers and management graduates every year.”
“Additionally, the city is a hub for a lot of industrial activity within the state, allowing us to get closer to our clients and add value in their growth journey. At PwC, our endeavours are aligned with India’s USD 5 trillion aspirations.”He added.
Further, he said, “Providing fulfilling opportunities of employment across the country will be an important step towards achieving this goal, and we are making this an integral part of our growth strategy. Between 2006 and 2017, Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities received five times more investments for retail infrastructure than Tier 1 and metro cities, reiterating the promise these cities hold.”
The expansion which the company has done will help to create nearly 10,000 additional jobs in the country in the next 5 years.
The firm has also planned to expand its office and operations in other cities like Bhubaneshwar. Post this they will be looking forward to opening its branch offices in Noida and Thane.
