With exposure to a diverse portfolio of clients across industries, you will take on a variety of challenging and impactful work that helps build both your technical expertise and business acumen.
Your key responsibilities
It’s no exaggeration to say no two projects will be alike. You’re likely to balance your time between engagement planning with other GCS members, actively analyzing complex data, and participating in GCS practice development. It’s all about using your technical skills to creatively assess and resolve our clients’ needs from the front lines. That means thinking critically about the value we can bring to our clients, taking initiative to research regulatory information and industry insights, and speaking up with innovative ideas that challenge the status quo.

- Develop yourself and others through seeking and offering on-the-job coaching

- Maintain a strong focus on the client and be responsive to their requests
To qualify for the role you must have
- A bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, business, or related field
- 1+ years of related working experience
- Achieved, or be working towards a professional designation, such as CPA, CFA, CFE
- Effective project and time management skills and the ability to prioritize when working on multiple engagements
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Strong knowledge of PC-based tools (e.g., MS Word, MS PowerPoint, MS Excel)
- The ability and willingness to travel and work in excess of standard hours when necessary
- Access to reliable transportation to/from the EY office and client sites. A driver’s license is strongly recommended as ride share and public transportation options may not be available in all locations
Ideally, you’ll also have
- Experience working with U.S. state or federal regulatory programs, preferably including FAR, CAS, Medicare, Medicaid, FSS, and/or DFARS
- A working knowledge of agentic AI tools (e.g., MS Copilot)
What we look for
We’re interested in people who have a passion for working in a team environment to solve problems, but we’re not just looking for strong technical skills. We’re interested in people who are able to nurture relationships—both internal and external—and are committed to intimately understanding our clients’ needs. If you’re looking to become part of a community of advisors where you’ll make a measurable difference across some of the most prestigious businesses around, this role is for you.
