The role supports EY’s Cyber Detection and Response practice, focusing on incident response and resilience (IRR), threat detection, investigation, containment, recovery, and security improvement. Candidates typically need a bachelor’s degree in cybersecurity, information technology, computer science, or a related discipline, along with relevant experience in SOC operations, digital forensics, incident response, SIEM platforms, threat intelligence, or security monitoring. Familiarity with frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001, and MITRE ATT&CK is advantageous. EY expects strong analytical, communication, documentation, and client-management skills, the ability to work under pressure, and willingness to support regional engagements, rotational shifts, or urgent incident situations.
EY, or Ernst & Young, is a global professional services organization providing assurance, tax, consulting, and strategy and transactions services. Its consulting business helps organizations improve performance, manage risk, modernize technology, and respond to changing regulatory and market conditions.

The firm operates in more than 150 countries and territories and serves clients ranging from multinational corporations and financial institutions to governments and fast-growing businesses. In the Philippines, EY has a significant delivery and consulting presence, particularly in Metro Manila, where teams serve both local and international engagements. Employees generally work in collaborative, structured environments with formal training, professional development, and opportunities to work with multinational clients and specialized technology teams.
The Philippines offers growing opportunities in cybersecurity, IT consulting, software development, shared services, finance, healthcare, tourism, and business-process operations. Metro Manila, especially Taguig, Makati, and Quezon City, is the main employment center, while Cebu and Davao also have expanding technology sectors. Filipino culture is generally friendly, family-oriented, community-minded, and strongly influenced by English-language education and global business. Urban lifestyles can be convenient but busy, with traffic and higher housing costs; provincial and island communities offer a slower, more affordable pace. Foreign employees usually need an employer-sponsored work visa or permit, commonly arranged after receiving a formal job offer. Relocating candidates should budget for housing deposits, health insurance, transport, and tropical weather preparation. The country has excellent beaches and diverse islands, but regional travel can require flights or ferries.
