Join our community of solvers in cultivating a collaborative workplace driven by unique perspectives. We’re proud PwC Canada advances a culture that helps everyone thrive. It's one of the reasons we're recognized as a top employer in Canada. As you build a career with purpose and build meaningful connections that’ll last a lifetime, you'll work with people from diverse backgrounds and industries to help solve important problems, powered by the latest technology, to turn today's ideas into tomorrow's solutions.
PwC Canada is committed to cultivating an inclusive, hybrid work environment - one that is collaborative, supportive and productive. We work in-person and virtually, as is best suited for our clients, teams and people. We want you to be intentional with your work, how you do it and where it’s done. PwC offices are hubs of connectivity and learning. We strongly encourage our people to prioritize in-person work, whether it’s in the office or at a client site. This means we expect you to be in-person (either with clients or in the office) at least half of your time.
We know that hybrid work is all about balance, and capturing the benefits of in-person work is essential to your growth at the firm. Exact expectations for your team can be discussed with your interviewer.

Our teams have what it takes to be our clients’ partner of choice to help them innovate to drive growth, strategically reduce costs, improve operational flexibility, manage risk, improve capital efficiency, comply with complex regulatory requirements or realize deal value as they work to harness the opportunities of Industry 4.0.
With connectivity being a key enabler of our strategy, our objective is to become the most connected firm - connected to our clients, our communities and to each other. PwC follows an Activity Based Work model, where our PwC professionals engage in a diverse range of activities from our offices, from client sites, or our home.
What you’ll bring to this role:
- Enrolled in second or third year of an engineering or business university degree program
- Experience in the financial or government sector is an asset, but not required
- Strong interest in business operations powered by the latest technologies
- Basic understanding of business management principles, operational efficiencies and risk management

- Comfortable travelling to cities across Canada, if required
- Authorisation to work for PwC in Canada for the duration of the internship
- When applying to a Quebec based opportunity, fluency in French is required. Outside of Quebec, fluency in French is an asset
- We'd love it even more if you’re bilingual in English and French, however this isn't a requirement.
Note: We only allow you to submit one application; however you are able to select a second and third office preference.
