EY has welcomed 21 trainee associates across the Channel Islands to begin their professional training in the financial services industry.
Before beginning their studies, the associates, who are a mix of graduates and A-level students, came together to take part in an induction programme to learn more about what their careers at EY will entail and how their roles will support both the local and global industry. They also took part in a number of team building exercises and a corporate responsibility day.
They will shortly begin studying towards either the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) or the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland (ICAS) professional qualification.
Andrew Dann, EY’s Channel Islands Managing Partner, said: “We are delighted to welcome our new associates to the firm. We pride ourselves on our leading people culture and providing all our people with the foundations to progress. Upon completing their qualifications they will have a number of opportunities to further their careers with EY in the Channel Islands or one of our global offices.
“With the increase in digital innovation rapidly transforming the way ourselves and our clients work, there has never been a better time to begin a career with EY as we continue to assist clients with the complex challenges they are facing.
“We have already started recruiting for our 2019 associate intake, so for those who are in their final years of school or university, now is a perfect time to get in contact with us to find out more about what we do and where a career at EY could take you. We also have a few spaces available on our 2019 Summer Internship programme if you would like to experience a taster of what a career at EY entails.”
