Mobility
What makes a great journey successful? We think it’s measured not just by how far you go — but also by the rich and varied experiences that help you get there. That’s why as you embark on your journey with Ernst & Young, we want to help you achieve your potential by offering international career opportunities across our service lines, sectors, and geographies.
Our 144,000 people are part of a global network that spans more than 140 countries. So, whether it’s the chance to work on one of our prestigious global accounts to obtain cross-cultural experiences, a short-term international assignment to help during busy season or participation in one of our more formal global placement programs, our international reach provides you with significant opportunities to develop learning experiences that span the globe.
There’s no experience like working abroad to expand your horizons. Spending time in a different country enables you to broaden your understanding of business and other cultures. And it’s a great way to enhance your career.

Serve global clients
Right from day one, you might serve global clients and work alongside a team of Ernst & Young people from all over the world, which provides you with exceptional cross-cultural experiences and learning.
Short-term assignments
Available from the start, short-term assignments can offer you a taste of international work. These situations arise when we have the need for additional resources in another country during busy season. Or we may need a hand with specific engagements or projects.
Global Exchange Program
As you become one of our high-performing seniors or managers in any of our service lines, you can participate in overseas assignments lasting anywhere from 18 to 24 months through our Global Exchange Program, our longest running international mobility program. There is no substitute for actually living in another country for a substantial period of time, going outside of your comfort zone and learning more both personally and professionally than you can ever imagine. You will broaden your technical skills, and benefit from exposure to best practices, new cultures and people — all while developing a network of contacts that encompass the world.
Corporate Responsibility Fellows Program
You might travel to Central or South America as a participant in our Corporate Responsibility (CR) Fellows Program. For our managers and above, this program focuses on improving the success of high-impact entrepreneurs in underserved communities. Our CR Fellows leverage their skills on three-month assignments, making a difference by helping local entrepreneurs to grow their businesses and create opportunities in Latin America.
Strategic leadership and management opportunities
When you become a partner or other senior-level professional, you may be offered a strategic opportunity to relocate to another practice or country to provide leadership or engagement management, to support business and practice development initiatives, to transfer your knowledge and share your experience.
International transfers
On your own, you can always identify and apply for an international transfer. Our Global Careers Opportunities Web site gives employees access to our worldwide job opportunities and enables you to submit an application.
