PwC shuffles top UK staff
PwC has picked Kevin Ellis as its new UK managing partner, replacing Richard Collier-Keywood as he moves to oversee the firm’s global strategy. Ellis, head of the advisory business for the last four years, joined the firm in 1984 and became a partner in 1996. Global deals leader John Dwyer and head of consulting Ashley Unwin have also been added to the firm’s board, with effect from 1 July – the first time PwC has had board members with responsibility for these sectors. The company also confirmed that former FSA managing director Margaret Cole will join in September, and is due to take over Owen Jonathan’s responsibilities as general counsel at the end of the year.
