Line of Service Advisory Industry/Sector Not Applicable Specialism Managed Services Management Level Senior Manager

Job Description & Summary

About the role:

PwC’s Finance Managed Services (FMS) team is growing rapidly as clients increasingly seek innovative, tech-enabled and insight-driven support to transform their finance operations. Our team has been successful in winning and delivering multiple global Finance Managed Services, and we have an exciting ambition.

As a Senior Manager in our FMS team, you will help shape the delivery of managed finance services for our clients. You will be joining a team that has grown over the past year and has developed a culture of innovation, market disruption, and entrepreneurialism.

You will lead the design and delivery of scalable, resilient, and cost-effective finance service models that combine operational excellence with strategic insight. We focus on reimagining our clients’ finance operating and delivery models. Our FMS solutions are designed to be 'plug and play', offering clients scalable capabilities that can be deployed and adjusted over time, providing a flexible alternative to expanding in-house finance teams.

We leverage leading cloud-based finance systems, such as Sage Intacct, and a range of other systems tailored to specific industries or business sizes. We foster a dynamic culture, encouraging feedback, creativity, and inclusion. We value diversity of thought and experience, and we are looking for talented, driven, and intellectually curious professionals who are entrepreneurial, collaborative, and motivated by challenge.

What your days will look like:

  • Leading end-to-end design and delivery of finance managed services
  • Playing an active role in managing and developing senior finance client relationships, including interactions with CFOs, Group Finance Directors, and Finance Leads
  • Developing commercial proposals and shaping operating models that align with client needs, compliance requirements, and transformation goals
  • Overseeing multi-disciplinary delivery teams (onshore and offshore), driving performance against KPIs, SLAs, and contractual commitments
  • Shaping and developing client deliverables
  • Driving and proactively supporting the management of client engagements, supporting a Director or Partner
  • Applying digital technologies such as workflow tools, analytics platforms, and automation (RPA/AI) to continuously enhance delivery
  • Supporting pursuit activity by contributing to bids, proposals, and solution design sessions
  • Coaching, mentoring, and developing team members, fostering a culture of continuous learning
  • Managing commercial performance of engagements, including contract profitability and growth
  • Be actively involved in business development activities to identify and research opportunities on new/existing clients
  • Working closely with colleagues across our Finance Transformation and ERP team closely aligning our FMS work with wider Finance Transformation projects

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
