Ernst & Young will create 300 new jobs across Ireland over the next 12 months reportsThe Belfast Telegraph.

The professional services firm will seek to recruit from graduate level right up to partner level to fill 300 new jobs across Northern and Southern Ireland, a spokesperson told Recruiter.

Thespokesperson added: “The jobs will be based across our five offices in Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Waterford and Belfast. There are 150 graduate recruitment roles — we’re seeking college graduates in accountancy, third-level qualifications or post-graduate qualifications. They would work under graduate programmes for three and a half years with the firm before becoming fully qualified.

“We’re also recruiting experienced hires, so individuals that already have experience and are fully qualified, ranging from senior managers up to directors, and I think they are even creating a number of partner positions as well.

“For graduate recruitment, we are working with a lot of the universities around Ireland targeting final-year students. With experienced hires, we would use the usual channels of advertising and targeting agencies.”
