My experience is drawn from working with clients in many parts of the world which gives me a global view of the challenges facing businesses and broad experience in providing trusted advice in solving complex issues with practical commercial solutions. I started with PwC in Hong Kong before moving into currency trading in London. I returned home to Adelaide and PwC to get qualified before once again spending time overseas. Matching my love of travel and fun adventures with continuously challenging myself and learning through PwC and large global clients. This included extensive experience in providing Assurance and trust services in Australian, the UK and the US. This growth path led me to working in M&A executing deals in the UK, the US, Russia, Germany, The Netherlands, Norway, Iceland, Belgium and Australia. This was pre and post the GFC so interesting times and learning experiences. We decided to move home to start a family and get back involved in the Adelaide scene. Continuing with PwC I bring global perspectives to understanding challenges with clients. I bring a commercial mindset, 'positive' solution based approach, and a focus on long term trusted advisor relationships drawing on my expertise in financial statement audits, technical accounting advice, process and controls optimisation, data assurance and due diligence services. Adelaide has one of the best Art scenes in the world, not to mention the best wine and food on offer anywhere. I am passionate about the Arts and try to contribute to the community. This has included working with the Adelaide Fringe and Adelaide Festival, and pro-bono and volunteer work with not-for-profits like Foodbank. I am an active supporter of Diversity and Inclusion which has included roles such as the Womens in resources committee.Happy to chat anytime - j.mccarthy@pwc.com
