The opportunity
Technology is changing how tax teams operate, how professional services are delivered and how organisations turn information into better decisions. As tax functions respond to increasing demands, limited resources and evolving expectations, there is a growing need to rethink how technology supports their people, processes and service delivery.
The Innovation Hive, within Tax Technology & Transformation, helps EY Tax & Law teams and clients navigate this change by identifying where technology can have the greatest impact and turning opportunities into practical solutions.
By joining the Innovation Hive’s Sales & Growth team as a Senior Associate, you will help transform how EY delivers services to clients, while also advising clients on how technology can support the operation and future direction of their tax functions. You will build trusted relationships, solve complex problems and bring people together to make change happen.
It is an exciting opportunity to work with a diverse, multi-skilled and inclusive team while developing your own career in a fast-growing environment.
Your key responsibilities
- Build trusted relationships with EY Tax & Law leaders, EY client teams and clients, connecting people across the organisation and creating opportunities for greater collaboration and growth.
- Support EY teams, clients and senior leaders with technology-enabled transformation activities, helping stakeholders define their ambition, prioritise opportunities and shape a clear approach to adoption and implementation.
- Take ownership over key tasks, workstreams or aspects within client projects, to support senior leaders and teams execute on project plans and deliver on success metrics.
- Support with, and in some cases lead, technology workshops, client demonstrations, and stakeholder sessions, making complex ideas clear and relevant for different audiences.
- Bring together tax knowledge, data and emerging technology, including AI, to develop innovative solutions to real business problems.
- Translate stakeholder and user feedback into clear requirements and actionable insight for Product, Design and Technology teams, helping influence product roadmaps and future priorities.
- Support go-to-market and growth activity by shaping propositions, preparing proposals and pitch materials, supporting pursuits and helping EY teams position technology effectively with clients.
- Drive opportunities from early ideas through to implementation and adoption, maintaining focus on business and client outcomes.
- Contribute to the wider team by sharing knowledge, supporting colleagues and helping to build capability across the Innovation Hive.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
