As well as servicing clients locally, you will have the opportunity to gain exposure across the national practice and learn new skills.


We are growing practice, with a strong market presence including in the care economy, health and human services, transport and infrastructure. Each new day brings with it a new challenge, providing the opportunity to develop and share sector specific expertise in industry sectors aligned with your experience and interests.


As well as gaining experience working with some of our biggest government clients, you’ll get access to EY’s extensive training and development opportunities.

• A proactive, positive attitude and a collaborative spirit.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to handle large datasets.
• A strong foundation or interest in undertaking economic and financial modelling/analysis to inform government decision making including cost benefit analysis and impact assessments of proposed initiatives.
