About Pratik Kumar Jena
I am a Chartered Accountant with over 5 years of experience in external audit, currently working as a Manager at PwC IAC, where I lead complex, first-year, and high-impact audit engagements across diverse industries.Over the years at PwC, I’ve progressed through roles with increasing responsibility—moving from Senior Associate to Manager—guided by a strong commitment to technical excellence, client service, and team development. I’ve had the opportunity to lead multiple fully staffed RTM (Remote Team Member) engagements, where I managed the audit process from start to finish. This included planning, coordinating directly with clients and onshore teams, leading execution and reviews, and ensuring timely, high-quality delivery.Often positioned as the primary offshore point of contact, I’ve built trusted relationships with engagement partners and client stakeholders alike, enabling smoother collaboration, quicker resolutions, and greater efficiency across engagements.My core expertise lies in US GAAP and US GAAS, with significant hands-on experience in technical areas such as ASC 606 (Revenue Recognition), ASC 842 (Leases), and ASC 805 (Business Combinations). I have also built a strong working knowledge of Ind AS and Indian auditing frameworks, enabling me to operate effectively across both global and domestic reporting environments.Beyond audit execution, I’m deeply invested in people development. I actively mentor junior colleagues and commerce students—breaking down complex audit and accounting concepts into practical, real-world insights that empower others to grow with confidence. Tools & Tech: Oracle, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics, Macola, Aura, Alteryx, Excel (Advanced), Generative AI toolsI value meaningful conversations—especially around audit quality, leadership, and the future of finance education. Always open to connect, learn, and contribute.
