Developing national talent programme

A great journey

The mismatch between supply and demand of skilled and talented national employees, in terms both of quality and quantity, is one of the most pressing challenges to the success of businesses in the Arab world.

PwC’s programme for developing national talent in the Middle East integrates a strategic approach by incorporating the best-practice talent management principles and leadership development approaches used by leading multinational enterprises, designed to attract, retain and develop national talent. The programme focuses on local talent acquisition, development, advancement, management and retention, to support PwC’s ambitious strategy in creating a pipeline of future national leaders in the Middle East.

As a leading global professional services organisation, the development of our people is vital to the success of our business strategy. This is why we seek talented, enterprising and intellectually curious employees in each of our markets who, drawing on the development opportunities we provide for them and their own knowledge of local markets and culture, can really help our clients to create the value they are looking for.
