This Senior Consultant role sits within EY’s Financial Services Technology Consulting, focusing on modern engineering and software delivery. Candidates are expected to have professional experience developing scalable applications, preferably using technologies such as Java, .NET, Python, JavaScript, cloud platforms, APIs, microservices, and modern DevOps practices. Experience with Agile delivery, automated testing, CI/CD, databases, and secure software design is valuable. The role requires strong problem-solving, communication, stakeholder-management, and teamwork skills, as well as the ability to work with financial-services clients. The successful candidate will contribute to technical design, development, code reviews, delivery planning, mentoring, and consulting engagements, while demonstrating commercial awareness and a commitment to quality, security, and continuous improvement.
EY is a global professional-services organization providing assurance, consulting, strategy, tax, and transaction services. Its clients include multinational companies, financial institutions, governments, and growing businesses. EY Ireland has offices across the country and supports clients with digital transformation, technology strategy, cybersecurity, data, cloud adoption, risk management, and financial-services modernization. The firm’s Technology Consulting practice combines industry knowledge with engineering and delivery capabilities, helping organizations design and implement secure, scalable digital platforms. EY promotes professional development through structured learning, certifications, coaching, and opportunities to work on international projects. In Ireland, its financial-services work is particularly relevant to banking, insurance, asset management, and fintech organizations. The company also emphasizes responsible business, inclusion, sustainability, and collaboration, although—as with other large consulting firms—projects can involve demanding deadlines, travel, and changing client priorities.
Ireland offers strong opportunities in software engineering, cloud, cybersecurity, data, fintech, consulting, pharmaceuticals, and multinational technology companies, especially in Dublin, Cork, Galway, and Limerick. The culture is generally friendly, social, and informal, with English widely used in professional life. Lifestyle benefits include scenic coastlines, compact cities, music, sport, pubs, and easy access to European travel. Dublin has the largest job market but also the highest housing costs and a competitive rental market; Cork and Galway may offer a slower pace and somewhat lower costs. Non-EEA professionals usually need an employment permit, with the Critical Skills Employment Permit often relevant to experienced technology specialists. Applicants should confirm eligibility, salary thresholds, and employer sponsorship before moving. EU, EEA, and Swiss citizens can generally live and work without a permit. Relocating employees should budget for accommodation deposits, private health cover where appropriate, transport, and registration requirements after arrival.
