Platinum Empowerment

PricewaterhouseCoopers is a Platinum sponsor of UNIFEM's Australia International Women's Day. 

Mary Waldron, PwC Managing Partner, Networks says: "We believe that diversity at PwC is critical to building a firm that is distinctive, innovative and inspiring for our people and our clients. This means listening and responding to people's differing needs whatever their life stage, gender, ethnicity or age."

“We are proud to help raise public awareness of gender and development issues with UNIFEM Australia whose initiatives include International Women’s Day and a shared focus on diversity," she says.

“PwC creates professional and personal development opportunities for all our people through an inclusive culture that promotes broad perspectives, overcomes unconscious bias and drives positive engagement to enhance our firm’s relationships with the communities in which we operate.

“At PwC, we work hard to support women in achieving fulfilling careers with the firm. In addition to providing women with key growth opportunities, we partner female talent with successful male and female sponsors to mentor them through their career.

“Women currently make up half of PwC’s graduate recruits and we are continuing to improve our retention rates of our female employees who are further into their careers. Our leadership’s commitment to creating a firm that is diverse is reflected by the steady increase of the percentage of women in leadership positions at PwC.”
