Ngā kōrero mo tēnei tūranga / About the role

As a Asia Pacific centre of excellence, the MVD (Market Value Direct) team focuses on supporting clients and audit teams across the region by estimating appropriate valuations on their financial instruments – from simple equity holdings to complex structured products.

Many of PwC’s clients hold financial instruments – equities, debt, derivatives, etc. The problem is, it helps to have an independent view on the value of these transactions. Whether it’s estimating the valuation impact of credit risk, capturing the impact of complex terms or managing poor or non-existent input data, this can be a real challenge and that’s where clients turn to PwC’s MVD team for help.

As a Senior Associate in our Assurance – MVD team, you'll play a key role in delivering high-quality audit engagements while building trusted client relationships. You'll lead the planning and execution of projects, manage risks and commercial outcomes, and contribute to business development, working alongside a collaborative team to deliver meaningful results for our clients.

This is a permanent, full-time opportunity, minimum of 37.5 hours per week.

Your day-to-day could include:

• Perform valuations across a wide range of financial instruments, from straightforward to highly complex products, using market data and valuation models.

• Manage multiple valuation engagements from planning through to delivery, ensuring work is completed on time and to a high standard.

• Review valuation models, reports and supporting analysis to ensure accuracy, quality and compliance with accounting and regulatory requirements.

• Partner with clients and audit teams to provide technical advice and support on financial instrument valuations and fair value assessments.

• Coach and mentor junior team members, while contributing to knowledge sharing, process improvements and the ongoing development of the team's valuation expertise.
