·      3–5 years of professional experience in technology product management, advisory, audits, digital transformation, systems implementation, or a closely related field —enough to bring perspective, not so much that you’ve stopped asking “why”

·      Sharp analytical thinking — the ability to gather information from multiple sources, spot patterns quickly, frame the right problem, and recommend a practical path forward

·      A collaborative team player who thrives in cross-functional environments, knows how to manage upwards and sideways, and can contribute meaningfully to projects across diverse client sectors

·      A self-starter who takes ownership of their work, manages their own deadlines, and can handle multiple workstreams without losing attention to quality or detail

·      Integrity and professionalism — you understand that in Assurance Advisory, trust is everything, and you take seriously your responsibility to clients, your team, and to EY

·      A natural people-person — someone who genuinely enjoys meeting new people, can break the ice effortlessly in a room full of strangers, and builds rapport quickly. Relationships open doors that credentials alone may not

Your Credentials

·      Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Data Analytics, Business (with a technology focus), legal or a related field

·      3 to 5 years of professional experience — enough to have real perspective, early enough in your career to grow exponentially with us
