Despite the best efforts of compliance, legal, risk, security and information technology departments, clients can remain uncertain on how to address and respond to the unexpected when corporate disruption occurs. Clients call upon EY to deploy former federal law enforcement officers, forensics accountants, compliance professionals and technology specialists to coordinate response activity and timelines, collect critical information and business intelligence, investigate suspicious activities, summarize procedures and outcomes, and streamline communications and reporting when responding to critical business events that can lead to an organizational crisis.

The EY Forensic & Integrity Services practice advises corporations and government clients on complex matters that require crisis management, fact-based investigations, digital investigations and insider threat, crisis & incident preparedness and business intelligence services. We service clients from various industries including financial services, technology, media & entertainment, real estate & construction, consumer products, health and life sciences and state & local governments, among others.

Working with clients across all industries, you’ll help assess and develop innovative recommendations for some of the most challenging crisis management, safety & security, intelligence and bribery & corruption issues around. Since we work with such a diverse portfolio of clients, you can expect to take on a wide range of forensic solution-based projects, making this a great place to develop your skills and business knowledge.

Because all clients have unique issues, it’s no exaggeration to say you’ll never be doing the same type of investigation for too long. You’ll be part of a team that works with our clients’ legal counsel, internal audit and compliance departments investigating complex issues and developing practical solutions that address operational challenges. It’s all about using your technical skills and problem solving to creatively assess and resolve our clients’ needs from the front lines.
