ACCOUNTING giant Price- WaterhouseCoopers has boosted its Southampton-based headcount to 350 after hiring 26 graduates.

The new team will be working within different departments of the firm, but all will be starting work straight away with more experienced colleagues on the firm's high profile regional clients such as drinks giant Bacardi and defence firm Cobham.

It is not only the new team members that are celebrating, but PwC Southampton also recently announced a series of promotions within the Ocean Village offices.
