Technology is changing the way businesses are operating. New technologies provide businesses with the potential to deliver new services, operate in new markets and to change the way they operate. Associated with these opportunities come risks and our clients seek independent advice and assurance over diverse issues, which include: the design and operation of their internal controls, the security of their business-critical systems, the delivery of major IT enabled programmes, their relationships with third parties, and their management, stewardship and ability to exploit business critical data.

The opportunity

EY is seeking a Manager to join our Digital Risk team, which is part of our Risk Consulting service line. As a Manager, you will play a pivotal role in assisting our clients to identify, assess, and manage IT risks and controls associated with their business operations. You will lead a team of professionals in delivering high-quality risk advisory services, focusing on Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), IT security assessments, cloud adoption risk, emerging technologies risk, and risk management and knowledge of Internal Controls. This role requires a deep understanding of the digital landscape, emerging technologies, and regulatory requirements to provide strategic insights and solutions that protect and add value to our clients.

• Manage and deliver projects related to IT security, GRC, IT governance, Controls and risk assessments, Cloud Adoption Risk, and Emerging Technology Risk, ensuring adherence to EY methodologies and professional standards.
• Develop and maintain strong client relationships, understanding their business challenges and providing tailored solutions.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate digital risk management into broader risk and compliance programs.
• Consult with leadership team and provide subject matter advice on digital risk management strategies, security and control frameworks, and best practices.
• Coach and develop team members while fostering a culture of continuous learning and professional growth.
• Contribute, as required, to business development activities, including proposal writing, client presentations, and networking.
• Stay abreast of emerging digital risks, technologies, and industry trends to provide forward-thinking advice to clients.
  
  

Skills and attributes for success:

• A minimum of 6-8 years of experience in risk management, IT security, Controls, cloud adoption risk, emerging technology risk or a related field with at least 2 years in a leadership role.
• Bachelor’s Degree (or higher) in Information Technology, Business Administration or Accounting & Finance.
• Professional accounting / audit designation(s) (e.g. CPA, CIA, CISA or CISM) is highly desirable.
• Strong skills in project management and engagement closure
• Strong understanding of IT security frameworks, regulations, and industry best practices
• Experience in consulting and client service delivery is desirable.
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and project management skills.
