EY is seeking a Financial Services Programme Director to lead major technology transformation programmes for banking, insurance or capital-markets clients. The role typically requires significant experience delivering complex technology or business change programmes, strong knowledge of financial services, and proven leadership of multidisciplinary teams, budgets, vendors and senior stakeholders. Candidates should be comfortable with programme governance, delivery planning, risk and issue management, regulatory expectations, agile and traditional delivery methods, and executive-level client communication. The position is based in Dublin and may involve business development, proposal support and mentoring consultants. A relevant degree and recognised programme or project management qualifications are advantageous.

Its consulting practice helps clients modernise operations, manage risk, adopt digital technologies and deliver large-scale transformation. EY Ireland has offices across the country, with Dublin serving as a major centre for financial services, technology, consulting and professional services. The firm works with banks, insurers, asset managers and public-sector organisations on regulatory change, technology implementation, cybersecurity, data, cloud and operating-model transformation. EY offers structured career development, professional learning and opportunities to work on international engagements. Its Financial Services practice combines industry knowledge with technology and business consulting, making it particularly relevant to programme leaders experienced in complex, regulated environments.
Ireland offers strong opportunities in technology consulting, financial services, software, pharmaceuticals, cybersecurity, cloud computing and business operations, especially in Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick. The culture is generally friendly, conversational and relationship-focused, with a good balance between professional ambition and social life. Ireland provides access to lively cities, coastal landscapes, historic towns and outdoor activities, although Dublin accommodation and childcare can be expensive. Citizens of the EU, EEA, Switzerland and the UK can generally live and work without an employment visa. Non-EEA professionals usually need an employment permit, such as a Critical Skills Employment Permit where the role and salary qualify, or a General Employment Permit. Applicants should confirm eligibility, arrange accommodation early and budget for housing, healthcare, transport and relocation costs. Dublin has good international connections and extensive professional networks.
