Francis Kamulegeya
Country Senior Partner
In the East Market Region, PwC firms in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania,

Rwanda, Zambia and Mauritius operate in a region that shares
many common growth trends and profiles. Many of our clients are
also operating on these countries as a regional business. Therefore
our regional grouping ensures that we are in a better position to
service them better and quickly respond to their business needs.
PwC Uganda has a long established practice serving government,
developing Partners and other international financing institutions,
as well as the private sector which enables some of the bigger global
and regional companies and brands operating in Uganda. Our local
capability comprises 3 Partners and over 130 professionals who
combine their in-depth understanding of local business, social,
cultural and economic issues with deep technical expertise and
industry knowledge. This local expertise, combined with our global
network, will create huge opportunities for young, energetic and
ambitious graduates who want to benefit from ideas that challenge
conventional thinking and gain new perspectives.
PwC Uganda has grown tremendously in recent years and we expect
this growth to continue as the market demand for high quality
industry focused, value adding consultancy services continue to
grow. As a result of this we are now looking for ambitious, highly
motivated and dynamic candidates to be part of this growth. So step
out and join the world leading professional services firm. We look
forward to welcoming you aboard a life changing experience.
