Candidates are generally expected to hold an accounting qualification such as ACA, ACCA, CPA or equivalent, with several years of external audit experience and knowledge of IFRS, US GAAP or insurance accounting.

In Bermuda, EY has a strong presence serving the international insurance and reinsurance market, along with other financial-services and corporate clients.

Bermuda offers career opportunities in insurance, reinsurance, banking, investment management, professional services, tourism, technology and marine industries. The island has a polished international-business culture, with English widely spoken and a strong expatriate community. Lifestyle highlights include beaches, boating, diving, golf and a generally mild climate, although housing, groceries and transportation can be expensive. Most employers require a work permit for foreign nationals and usually sponsor the application; approval depends on the role, qualifications, advertising requirements and local labor-market rules. Relocating employees should confirm visa, family, healthcare, housing and school arrangements before accepting an offer. Bermuda uses the Bermudian dollar, pegged to the US dollar, and has strict rules concerning car ownership, with motorcycles and public transport commonly used. The island is well connected to North America and the United Kingdom.
