You will have a commercial outlook and enjoy collaborating with colleagues across the globe in a multicultural and virtual environment.

    You will be known for your big picture thinking and ability to explain complex concepts in a crisp, clear, concise and graphic-rich style, using appropriate analytics and visualization tools.

    To qualify for the role, you must:

  • Have experience of working in the wealth and asset management sector
  • Have deep analysis capabilities leveraging data and analytics in support of EY’s WAM market strategy
