EY is seeking a Senior in its Financial Services Organization Assurance practice, focused on audit engagements for wealth and asset management clients in the Cayman Islands. Requirements typically include a degree in accounting, finance, or a related discipline; relevant external audit experience; and progress toward, or possession of, a professional qualification such as ACA, ACCA, CPA, or equivalent. The successful candidate should understand IFRS and auditing standards, demonstrate strong analytical and report-writing skills, and be comfortable working with investment funds, asset managers, and complex financial statements. Expectations include supervising junior team members, managing client relationships, meeting deadlines, identifying risks, maintaining audit quality, and contributing to business development. Cayman Islands audit or financial-services experience is advantageous.
EY, formerly Ernst & Young, is one of the world's largest professional-services organizations and a member of the Big Four accounting firms. It provides assurance, tax, consulting, strategy, and transaction services to businesses, governments, and investors. EY's Financial Services Organization supports banks, insurers, investment funds, private-equity firms, wealth managers, and other financial institutions. In the Cayman Islands, the firm works extensively with the investment-funds and asset-management industry, providing audit, accounting, regulatory, risk, and advisory services. EY emphasizes professional development, collaboration, integrity, and the use of technology to improve quality and client outcomes. Employees can gain international exposure through complex engagements and work with colleagues and clients across global financial markets. Benefits and employment terms vary by local office, seniority, professional qualifications, and applicable Cayman Islands regulations.
The Cayman Islands offers strong opportunities in financial services, especially audit, fund administration, accounting, compliance, banking, insurance, and wealth management. Tourism, hospitality, construction, healthcare, education, and technology also provide employment, although many professional roles favor applicants with relevant experience and qualifications. Cayman culture blends Caribbean traditions with British influences and a highly international resident community. Lifestyle attractions include excellent beaches, diving, boating, warm weather, and a safe, well-developed environment. Living costs are high, particularly for housing, groceries, transportation, and imported goods. Foreign nationals generally need an employer-sponsored work permit before starting employment; the employer normally manages the application, and approval depends on the role, qualifications, and local labor requirements. Relocating workers should confirm healthcare coverage, housing availability, immigration conditions, and whether dependants require separate permissions. Grand Cayman is the main commercial center, while Cayman Brac and Little Cayman offer a quieter island lifestyle.
