Firm moves staff into new office that 'takes inspiration' from Glasgow
The company has 1,100 people working for them in Scotland and its new office is just across the road from the firm's current base on Bothwell Street.
The decision to move coincides with Jason Morris being named Glasgow Market Senior Partner, taking over from Robin McBurnie. Mr McBurnie had held the role for the last five years.
His replacement will also continue to lead the overall Scottish business as Scotland Markets Leader.
The new office space has been designed to support the firm's evolved way of working, bringing staff together in a digitally enabled and modern environment that reflects PwC's transformation and commitment to client-centric and purpose-led growth.
The move comes after 15 years in its previously location and the company says it underlines its long-term investment in Scotland, where it has strong and growing regional teams.
Those teams deliver a wide range of assurance, tax, deals and consulting services to clients across the country in sectors such as energy, food and drink and financial services that are vital to Scotland's economy.
The move see PwC occupying levels eight and nine of the Aurora building at 120 Bothwell Street. The two floors is 26,000 sq. ft. of floor space and offers a 'bespoke flexible and collaborative workspace' that has been created.
The design has taken inspiration from Glasgow itself, with the colour strategy based on the city's famous sandstone architecture.
Glasgow's renown as the 'dear green place' is also on show with everything from the office's leading sustainability credentials to meeting rooms being named after the city's parks and green spaces.
There is also a nod to the city's creatives throughout, from its musical heritage to street art and hints of the famous Glasgow humour all part of the new building also.

PwC has a long history in Glasgow, with previous locations for the firm including Kintyre House in West George Street and Blythswood Square before the company then made the move to 140 Bothwell Street in 2009, and now across the road to 120 Bothwell Street.
Robin McBurnie, Glasgow Market Senior Partner at PwC UK, said: 'Glasgow has been an important part of our firm's story for decades, and this next chapter reflects the energy, ambition and talent that define both our people and this city.
'Our investment here is testament to our belief in Glasgow's bright future as a leading centre for business and innovation, and as a born and bred Glaswegian I couldn't be prouder of the space we've created for our people.'

Carl Sizer, Chief Markets Officer, PwC UK, said: 'Our firm's move into a new Glasgow office is more than just a change of address – it's a symbol of our confidence in Scotland and our commitment to growing with and for our clients here.
