In Business Consulting, we deliver long-term value to our clients by transforming organisations through the power of exceptional skills, insights, talent and experiences.

We help define client strategies, deliver end to end transformation for our clients and provide a full suite of services throughout their transformation lifecycle.

Through a comprehensive range of services designed to enhance business performance and achieve strategic objectives, we support clients by developing effective and innovative strategies, optimising operations, reducing costs and driving digital transformation.

We have a number of specialised teams across our Business Consulting practice including Business Transformation, Transformation Architecture, Finance Transformation, Customer Transformation, and Supply Chain and Operations (Non-GFS).

What We Look For

• You have an agile, growth-oriented mindset. What you know matters. But the right mindset is just as important in determining success. We're looking for people who are adaptable, open to learning, and able to thrive in a rapidly changing environment.
• You are curious and purpose-driven. We're looking for people who see opportunities instead of challenges, ask thoughtful questions, and seek to continuously learn and develop.
• You embrace technology and are AI-curious. You are interested in understanding and applying AI tools responsibly, recognise opportunities to use AI to support your work, and are willing to continuously build your skills as technologies evolve. You seek guidance when needed, adapt to new ways of working, and use feedback to improve your effectiveness.
• You are inclusive. We're looking for people who seek out and embrace diverse perspectives, value differences, and collaborate inclusively to build trust and psychological safety.
• You have excellent communication skills and can clearly articulate your ideas, insights, and recommendations to a variety of audiences.
• Qualifications: We welcome graduates from all backgrounds and disciplines who are on track to achieve a 2:1 degree or higher.

What’s In It For You

• At EY, your wellbeing is our priority. We offer a variety of programs to support you in caring for your own wellbeing and that of your colleagues, including hybrid working options, sports and social clubs, financial wellbeing programme, employee assistance programme and regular wellbeing events.
• Our EY Graduate Induction Journey will equip you with the critical business, digital and professional skills needed to succeed at EY. Over your first 90 days you will build your foundational skills to start working with clients through a blend of immersive in-person learning experiences, virtual workshops and bite-sized learning content. Throughout this journey you will connect with your fellow graduates from across the firm, network with leaders and technical experts and be supported by your buddy, career counsellor and manager.
• At EY, learning never stops and you’ll have access to a world-class learning and development programme with clear career pathways to guide you. You’ll also have access to EY Badges—our global learning initiative that lets you choose and earn digital credentials in emerging and future focused skills like data, sustainability and AI. Whether you're aiming for a professional qualification or exploring new areas, we’ll support your growth every step of the way.
