Anyone at PwC able to shed some light on the PwC UK DDV practice? Specifically:
- What’s the main type of work? DDs, carve outs, post M&A work?
- How different is the comp compared to the Consulting and S& teams?
- What is the base + bonus for a Director?
- Any other thoughts on how this compares to EY OTS/EYP, A&M and AlixPartners?

OP - a close friend works in a similar area so can share what I know…

(1) work - full deal cycle - Ops & IT DD >> Deal PMO >> PMI etc. CDD mainly sits with Deals Strategy and / or S&. FDD would typically sit with TS (Transaction Services) & CF (Corp finance).

(2) Comp variation - I’d venture a guess - S&~DDV>>Consulting. I’d assume a similar pattern when it comes to bonus but not entirely sure.

(3) Comp benchmark - soz no info

(4) Capability wise - EY OTS is a market leading practice in Europe. PwC DDV has poached heavily from OTS and so have A&M and Alix. TC might be significantly (>20%) higher at A&M or Alix though.

Hope this helps.

All the best!

On (2) comp is in between consulting and S&… it’s more closely aligned to the Deals practice. Not in DDV but assume starting band for D is around £110 base plus car allowance

Yes - we are actively hiring and with a very healthy pipeline of work. Please reach out and I’m happy to talk more about the team and our work - and maybe refer!
