PwC OnBoard

Not-for-profit board and advisory roles are open to our Alumni Network. Use your skills to make an impact and help build capacity in the NFP sector.

PwC OnBoard connects our Alumni Network and our people to board and advisory roles with not-for-profits (NFPs). As the only board placement program supporting NFPs in corporate Australia, we bridge the gap between the corporate and the NFP sector; between our people and their communities.

Open to a broad range of professionals, we connect you to causes you’re passionate about so you can help drive social change across Australia. This is your opportunity to leverage your professional skills and make a positive impact in the community. In turn, NFPs gain access to your time, talent and networks.
