Job description

At EY, we’re all in to shape your future with confidence.

We’ll help you succeed in a globally connected powerhouse of diverse teams and take your career wherever you want it to go.

Join EY and help to build a better working world.

Location: Erbil, Iraq.

The opportunity

You will be working with one of the most trusted, respected and influential teams in the industry. You will help clients by using your skills build confidence in the validity of financial statements and business-critical information or processes. Learn more about our Assurance service line.

Assurance

Global Assurance’s purpose is to inspire confidence and trust to help build a better working world. We do so by protecting and serving the public interest, promoting transparency, supporting investor confidence and economic growth and nurturing talent to provide future business leaders for the global marketplace.

This translates to a service offering for our clients that supports them in building stakeholders’ confidence and trust, managing regulatory responsibilities and driving long-term, sustainable growth.

What we do for our clients?

Audit

Our tailored external audit services help build trust and confidence through transparency, clarity and consistency. Audit services involve reporting on the fairness in all material respects with which a client’s audited financial statements are presented, in conformity with the applicable financial reporting framework.

Financial Accounting Advisory Services

Our FAAS practice supports our clients in determining, monitoring and disclosing the financial and non-financial insights to their stakeholders. Our multidisciplinary teams work with clients on projects such as managing accounting and reporting challenges, transaction accounting, corporate governance, corporate treasury services and audit remediation.

Forensic & Integrity Services

Dealing with complex issues of fraud, regulatory compliance and business disputes can detract from efforts to succeed. Better management of fraud risk and compliance exposure is a critical business priority – no matter the size or industry sector. We work to give our clients the benefit of our broad sector experience, our deep subject-matter knowledge and the latest insights from our work worldwide.​

What is an EY Internship Program?

We are passionate about making sure the experience you have with us as an intern lasts a lifetime. To demonstrate this, we have developed an Internship Program which offers you a combination of varied on-the-job work experience as well as web based/self-study learnings. The combination of such components will support you in developing your knowledge around the services we offer while building your communication and interpersonal skills. Along the way you will be supported and coached by a team of professionals within your location.
