Graduated in BSc Economics, prior to which I was an EY Summer Intern
In December 2020, I had the exciting chance to participate in EY's Corporate Finance Woman of the Year competition where I presented an innovative solution in a small team to a strategy-based case study. Through this and also by hearing several associates' extensive experience in the service line I attained invaluable knowledge about Strategy and Transactions sparking my interest even further into this sector.
Having had EY in mind as my top employer for a few years, I was grateful to gain a place on the virtual summer internship in 2021, which despite being online, was insightful into both the company's work within my sub-service line as well as the initiatives in CSR which everyone can become involved in. The welcoming and inclusive culture I experienced through my interactions with employees from every level further encouraged my motivation to join EY full time.
In July 2022, I was one of four attendees from the UK at EY's Futures conference which was attended by 4,000 interns from 20 countries. This was an incredible experience in which I had the opportunity to build my global EY network and collaborate with like-minded participants from across the world all looking to kick-start their early careers in a fun but inspiring way.
I conduct financial due diligence on buy & sell-side M&A transactions.
I am an analyst in the Transaction Diligence sub-service line in which our teams work on projects for clients who are either on the sell-side or buy-side of an M&A transaction. We conduct analyses on a variety of financial information and data which provides the basis for a Financial Due Diligence which is presented to the client.
Collaborating with a diverse network of colleagues on unique projects.
I have a wide range of opportunities to work not only on various projects in different industries but also with colleagues from diverse backgrounds who I can learn from and develop in my career. It's a fast paced job with a lot to learn every day and many ways in which to grow both professionally and personally.
Find what interests you and stick to roles that will motivate you
Match your values to the company that you are applying to and make sure both what they do within work projects and outside of this engages your interests so that you have the motivation to develop yourself professionally and personally throughout your career journey. It will always present much more positively if you are truly excited and enjoy what you will do in your daily role.
I was chosen as 1 of 4 UK attendees at EY's global intern conference
I attended EY's Futures global intern conference in Orlando as 1 of 4 representatives from the UK. I met like-minded individuals from 20 countries, discovered much more about EY's values, culture and work, as well as collaborated in a team on a treasure hunt-like quest in Disney World!
