What’s in it for you?
EY’s Asia-Pacific Tax Innovation team is at an exciting stage on its mission to incubate and launch new value-creating products and initiatives that challenge the status quo and positively impact our people and clients.
Supporting over 10,000 people across Asia-Pacific Tax, the team is seeking a communications and design specialist to join as the Asia-Pacific Tax Innovation Communications & Design Associate.
The Asia-Pacific Tax Innovation team works with disruptive start-ups, university innovation labs, entrepreneurs and corporate partners such as Microsoft to explore how emerging technology such as ChatGPT, the Metaverse and significant environmental changes such as Sustainability will impact our Tax, Law and People Advisory Services teams and the clients we serve.
You will be an integral member of the Asia-Pac Tax Innovation team and be responsible for supporting the team’s internal communications activities and be responsible for producing visually engaging graphic assets to incorporate into product and project marketing plans.
This opportunity is open to candidates who are interested in casual work (estimated to be ~20-40 hours per month) and we are flexible on location.
Key Responsibilities:
- Create professional, informative and compelling content that resonates and engages with employees at all levels for a variety of channels (e.g. email, executive presentations, intranet news, Yammer, etc)
- Write, edit and proof-read communication and thought-leadership material in formats including internal and client-facing go-to-market materials, newsletter content and intranet articles
- Design engaging graphic assets to incorporate into internal communication materials and as part of broader project marketing communication plans
- Update and manage the team’s SharePoint site, communications calendar and admin files
- Work collaboratively across the A-Pac Tax Innovation team, and other EY communications and technology teams
- Help increase awareness and engagement on innovation, new technology and intrapreneurship across the Asia-Pacific Tax practice.
What we’re looking for?
- Undergraduate or Post-Graduate student studying communications, marketing, advertising, media or journalism who’s passionate about innovation, technology, start-ups and entrepreneurship. Knowledge of Tax is not essential.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, capable of communicating with audiences at all levels with clarity, impact and influence ranging from senior executive leadership teams to enterprise-wide communications to external social media
- Ability to translate complex information into simple, engaging information for the target audience
- Proficiency in design and graphic creation using tools such as Adobe Creative Suite
- Ability to plan and prioritise effectively, organise tasks and manage competing tasks and demands
- Comfortable working in a virtual team environment. Self-motivated and able to work with minimal supervision and direction
- Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities in a fast-paced environment
- Attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
- Experience in an internal communications role at a medium to large organisation or in copywriting and editing for marketing or communications collateral, websites, intranets, magazines and newsletters

Reviews
I am an audit graduate and am slowly learning how to perform an audit from start to finish. This has involved me working on increasingly complicated accounts and assisting my seniors and managers in this process. Day-to-day I am typically responsible for sampling, discussing problems with client, and helping clean-up/present workbooks for seniors/managers to review.
My day-to-day responsibilities include updating seniors on my work, completing my assigned tasks, communicating with the client and building relationships
As a graduate consultant in the risk team, my day-to-day responsibilities vary based on the engagement/project I am working on. Risk projects tend to have three key phases: Planning, Fieldwork, and Reporting. The planning stage often involves tasks such as requesting information from clients, confirming the issue you are solving for them, and completing administrative work. Fieldwork is where I will deal with client communication, analyzing documents, figuring out risks/findings, and attempting to figure out where the client is going right or wrong. Once this is all completed, I will assist the team with writing the final report and sending it to the client for review. EY also provides a lot of learning opportunities when you aren't as busy with work. This involves internal modules, courses, and qualifications you can obtain.

Pros and cons of working at EY Australia
Pros
The flexibility with my work schedule. I can work from home, or leave for appointments during the day if I need and make up the time some other days etc.
The people, learning and opportunities.
The opportunities available and having different aspects that are important to the company e.g. soccer tournament, ripples etc. Learning experience has been amazing and have had lots of hands-on help from upper management.
The work culture within EY's consulting practice has been incredibly welcoming in the early stages of my career. Off the bat, I've been given the opportunity to have a buddy (similar rank level) and counsellor (manager +) who have guided me in getting adapted to the team and ensuring I am exposed to different types of work.
Due to the size and complexity of the work we do at EY, an employee is able to expose themselves to a range of interesting working opportunities, as long as they are willing to extend themselves.
Cons
Salary is not the best.
The model of being coached by those that are only 1 or 2 years your senior... they might be a good worker, but that doesn't always make them a good teacher.
The salary at early stages.
End of Financial Year workload - unavoidable though and not the end of the world.
There are times where you may feel overwhelmed with what your key tasks/expectations are. This is something that gets better over time and is likely not specifically an EY issue - more something that is dealt with in other professional services companies as well.
