Job Description & Summary

PwC has proven itself over the years as a reliable partner in the public sector. Our team focuses on challenges in the areas of automation, digitalization, and risk management. The increasing complexity and demands of society require a proactive and innovative approach to IT, risk management, and compliance. This offers a unique opportunity for PwC to make a difference and make a significant contribution to public organizations. Join our team and help us shape the future! 

What will you be doing? 

As a manager in the public sector, you will contribute to strengthening risk management within public organizations.

You are familiar with the culture and challenges typical of public organizations and are skilled in navigating these complex governing environments. Additionally, you have a strong affinity for data, technology, and innovation. You are an inspiring leader who communicates effectively with diverse audiences. 

Additionally, you have: 

• At least 6 years of experience in risk management within the public sector; 
• A completed WO master's degree in Public Administration, Business Administration, BIM, Finance, or a related field; 
• It is a plus if you hold a RE, RC, RA, or RO title; 
• Experience with GRC tooling and/or audit activities is a plus; 
• You speak and write fluent Dutch and English. 

What are we offering? 

At PwC, you will have the opportunity to be yourself, get the best out of yourself in a high-performance organisation and grow within our global network. As part of our team we offer:
