Description

Ernst & Young Advisory Services is a fast-moving, high-growth area with huge potential. It offers variety, challenge, responsibility and the opportunity to realize your leadership potential. Being a member of our Advisory team means you will specialize in a particular competency - Risk, Performance Improvement, or IT Risk & Assurance. Our Performance Improvement team is focused on helping clients improve business performance and operational efficiency while managing risk. We help clients by delivering assessment, transformation and process efficiency solutions in specialty areas like finance, supply chain, enterprise intelligence, healthcare, customer, people and organization change, strategic direction, and program management.

Ernst & Young's Performance Improvement practice has a global integrated Finance service offering, including Finance Transformation, and Shared Services.

Our Finance Transformation team members focus on the priorities and challenges our clients' CFOs are facing. The CFO must deal with the complexity of balancing risk and performance and the tension that may exist between them. Key concerns for the CFO include protecting reputation and brand, effective internal and external communication, managing risk/return ratio, effective performance reporting and contributing to decision support.

Our focus areas within Finance Transformation:

* Finance Function Strategy

* Finance Organizational Design and Development

* Finance Operational Effectiveness

* Finance and Operational Systems Effectiveness

* Management Information and Decision Support

Our Shared Services team combines leading practice "know how" and deep shared services knowledge with financial and operational controls experience. Implementing a Shared Service Center or the improvement of an existing Shared Service Center can help a client CFO balance cost, quality and benefit to the organization. Leveraging EY advisory skills and experience assists the client to transform commonly performed finance activities and associated processes in order to improve profitability, efficiency and achievement of strategic goals.

We currently are seeking highly motivated Senior Consultants to support client engagement teams, work with a wide variety of clients to deliver professional services, and participate in business development activities on strategic and global priority accounts.
