The Opportunity
The UK GCR business is expected to undergo significant change in the coming years due to technology improvements and competitor disruption. The business needs to develop and adopt improved technology across all areas which will lead to significant change in how the business operates both externally (go-to-market strategy) and internally (process change). At the same time, the mix of work in the GCR business is changing as a result of changes in market demand for the different services we offer, as well as changes to EY’s audit portfolio and delivery model/pricing (as tax audit revenues are a significant part of GCR’s overall revenue).
This role offers the opportunity to help define the future operating model for GCR and lead on executing the change programme to deliver that future model, as well as overseeing BAU operational elements of the GCR team throughout that time. The high‑level direction of the transformation has been agreed (known as Project Rocket), and some change initiatives are underway.
