The network of PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) firms operating across the Caribbean has named David Gibbons as its next chief executive officer, effective July 1, 2026.
Gibbons will succeed Frazer Lindsay, who has led the regional network since 2016 and will retire on June 30, concluding a 36-year career with the firm.
“It’s a tremendous honor to serve as the next CEO, especially as we stand at a pivotal moment for professional services regionally and globally,” Gibbons said. “With geopolitical tensions, evolving economies, and the impact of AI, our clients are navigating tremendous change. I am confident that the network of PwC firms operating in the Caribbean has the right blend of people, capabilities, and technology to help our regional clients seize opportunities amid these challenges.”
He added that he looks forward to building on the firm’s foundation to ensure clients remain competitive in a rapidly shifting landscape.
Lindsay endorsed the appointment, describing Gibbons as well-suited to guide the organization through its next phase.
“David is the right leader for this moment. He brings a sharp vision and a deep understanding of our markets and clients,” Lindsay said. “I look forward to working with him over the coming months to ensure a smooth transition. I am confident that under his guidance, our regional network will continue to grow and deliver the very best to our clients.”
Bruce Scott, chairman of the board of the PwC Caribbean network, also expressed confidence in the incoming CEO’s leadership.
“David brings a strong regional perspective and a clear understanding of what our clients and communities need from PwC,” Scott said. “His focus on quality, people, and sustained growth will be critical as our firms respond to changes in an increasingly complex business environment.”
A Barbadian by birth, Gibbons began his career in Barbados before relocating to Bermuda, where he has spent more than two decades with PwC, including 12 years as a partner. He has served on the region’s Core Leadership Team as Human Capital Leader for the past seven years and most recently held the role of Assurance Leader for PwC Bermuda.
In those positions, he played a key role in shaping regional strategy and driving initiatives aimed at sustained market growth.
Gibbons is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Barbados and a Chartered Professional Accountant in both Bermuda and Nova Scotia. He is also recognized for his expertise in regional and global insurance trends.
As he prepares to assume the role, Gibbons signaled a forward-looking agenda centered on growth, strong stakeholder relationships, and the integration of people and technology—underpinned by what he describes as a “no-compromise” approach to quality.
