EY Empower: People Advisory Services Summer Internship

About the programme

As part of the Tax team’s People Advisory Services (PAS), you’ll look at how businesses reward and relocate employees around the world – and how it affects their tax. The future of work means a global workforce and continual change. You’ll learn what this means for you and for the ever-changing society we live in. You’ll explore the impact on communities and develop the skills needed to advise clients – guiding business in the right direction for tomorrow’s world.

What will you be doing?

• Getting a sense of the scope of our work in either Mobility or Reward in a UK & Ireland or Financial Services team.
• Contributing to real client projects.
• Managing your own work, time and deliverables with support from your team.

How is it structured?

Join a supportive and inclusive culture, build your strengths and develop new business skills. Working on client projects, gain insight into our service offerings and become an integral part of our team. We're proud to have won awards for being one of the best companies to work for.

Be completely immersed in the world of work at EY. After a company induction, you’ll join your team in either UK & Ireland or Financial Services. Once you’ve been brought up to speed with what we do, you’ll jump straight into work, alongside graduates on real client projects. If you do a great job, you could be offered a place on the graduate programme to come back to when you finish university.

Bring an eagerness to learn, adaptability, curiosity and a passion for people and you could lay the foundations for a successful future. If you do a great job, you could be offered a place on the graduate programme to come back to when you finish university.

Across your five-week summer internship, dive into a variety of activities that will see you pick up brand-new skills, develop your strengths and prepare for tomorrow. As well as contributing to client projects, take on extra learning opportunities that broaden your experience in business, leadership and technology.

Another great EY perk? We offer community days – meaning you can get hands on locally while raising money for the EY Foundation. What’s more, our offices are social hubs fuelled by community spirit. Network, get to know your fellow interns and have fun!

No matter which area you join, the support we offer never wavers. Pair up with a buddy, get career advice from one of our counsellors, and say hello to our summer internship team. Everyone is here to give you the best start to your future – so get ready to thrive.

Technology in People Advisory Services – Mobility and Reward

Technology is at the forefront of the solutions we offer to our clients, and we embrace innovative thinking across our teams. You’ll use this technology to help clients make informed decisions – all while you learn to operate this tech in an efficient way.

This is where your adventure begins and where you have every opportunity to build an exceptional experience. Embrace the challenge as you help us build a better working world for everyone.
