The opportunity: your next adventure awaits.
The People Advisory Services (PAS) Staff Experiences Program offers candidates like you an opportunity for a completely tailored, independently-driven, and leadership-sponsored career path. As HR and business have evolved, so have our offerings. You will work on projects in a wide range of industries and sectors and provide clients with market leading expertise. The PAS Workforce Advisory practice collaborates with clients to address complex people-related issues and provides support through our core competencies – organizational change management; organizational design and workforce planning; HR transformation; payroll advisory; learning services; workforce management and time and attendance; purpose, culture and leadership; workforce analytics; and transactions. Whether you work in many of these areas or choose to gain expertise in one – your role at EY will be as unique as you are.
In Workforce Advisory, you will master the fundamentals of professional services from a people perspective. You will develop skills by capturing change impacts, developing training, supporting organizational design and transformation, and gauging business readiness. We enable client success by effectively preparing clients for change and driving strategy.
In your first few years you’ll assess complex client challenges, benchmark against competitors, advise on leading practices, and guide clients through implementations, transactions, and transformations. Even in your first year, you will help engagement leaders gather and analyze meaningful data, identify risks, enable successful project management, and learn how businesses operate. At EY we trust our employees to deliver exceptional work – allowing entry-level employees to prove they can perform well beyond their years.
We help clients understand, secure, and improve their people agenda. As part of our team you’ll support organizations’ adaptation to key market trends like the growing emphasis on the employee experience, digital technology enablement, innovation, and the globalizing workforce. From day one you’ll work with clients across the spectrum in industry, size, culture, and region. Likewise, you will partner with analysts, partners, interns and client executives to help build a better working world. Access to extensive resources and tools which will add momentum to your career at a highly accelerated pace.
Expect the unexpected! One of the most important qualifications for this role is to be able to adapt quickly to a fast-paced and highly unpredictable environment. While our recent client engagements have commenced in a virtual environment, you’ll typically be expected to travel to the client site 80% of the time. You will need to have the confidence to work collaboratively to produce a deliverable that benefits both the client and the team, even under constantly changing conditions. The ability to excel with ambiguous roles and duties is also critical for success. With all of this being said, you can expect to work with team members who have invaluable information to teach and who can learn from you as well.
Your key responsibilities
- Knowing your stuff – EY methodologies, industry best-practices and news, and client-specific info. It is critical that everyone on our team has the knowledge he or she needs to help our clients. Don’t worry – you’ll be building on your current education and expertise with EY training, resources, and cutting-edge thought leadership

Critical thinking, situational reasoning, and practical solutioning is required, often under tight deadlines. A cool head combined with strong analytical skills is a must-have
- Working with technology – every project involves some level of tech know-how. Comfort around technology and a willingness to build these skills helps us to remain at the forefront of innovation
- Supporting EY growth – while the majority of our time is spent with external clients, you’ll also work on internal initiatives such as business development and NextWave, our ambition to create long-term value for our clients, our people and society

- 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 innovative, can work in an agile way and keep pace with a rapidly changing world.
- You are curious and purpose driven. We’re looking for people who see opportunities instead of challenges, who ask better questions to seek better answers that build a better working world.

Qualifications
