economic methods possible in order to fulfill its objective of making the world a better place.
5. Organization of the company:
EY has a normal hierarchical structure that starts with the board of directors, much like any other
corporation.
- The board of directors:
To begin, the board of directors is responsible for the vision of its shareholders. In order to keep
the organization functioning effectively, they also develop and adopt policies for its
management. They are in charge of the firm and how it is operated. They assume the company's
ultimate leadership position so that employees have someone to look up to and follow. Working
on the board of directors entails a variety of responsibilities. They have a position of power in the
corporation. They deal with all of the company's essential challenges. They also make certain
that the organization has all of the resources it will require. They review their strategies and
make critical decisions concerning their business's future.
- The chairman:
The board of directors is led by the chairman. They are in charge of overseeing the board of
directors' activities and decision-making. They are in charge of the board of directors and work
on strategic issues. They make certain that the board of directors is capable of leading the
organization. The board of directors elects the chair to lead them. They also assist in the planning
of the agenda. The chair of the board of directors protects the interests of both shareholders and
management. They keep things functioning smoothly by ensuring openness.
 - The CEO:
The chair and the board of directors appoint the CEO or chief executive officer. They are the
company's senior executive officers and are in charge of the company's operations. They serve as
a link between the executive team and the board of directors. They also serve as the company's
public face. Along with overseeing and administering the company's day-to-day operations, the
Chief Executive Officer is responsible for ensuring that the board's vision is carried out
effectively. The CEO's responsibility in a high-level firm like Ernst & Young would be to make
top executive decisions and develop strategies to achieve overall growth. They have a more
hands-on position than the board of directors, which is why the Chief Executive Officer is
frequently referenced anytime the firm is mentioned.
- The Company Secretary:
Their job in the organization is to make sure that the board's decisions are carried out smoothly.
They ensure that all administrative tasks are completed efficiently. They inspect the company's
operations and verify that everything is running well. They have a number of responsibilities as
the business secretary. As the company secretary, they will, for example, have to communicate
with the firm's shareholders. They're also in charge of transmitting messages during board
meetings and other large gatherings. They're also in charge of scheduling those meetings. They
also look after the corporate seal and statutory documents.
- The area management partner:
EY has four separate designations for various areas. Each of these regions has its own
management team in charge. The region management team is also represented on the global
executive board. Each of these groups has a leader who is trusted and given authority to
make choices as they see fit. Any choices they make must be consistent with the principles
and values established by the board of global executives.
After all of this, the majority of the positions remain unchanged. Under each branch, they
will have an operations team, an audit team, and so on, all of which will essentially work in
the same way. An employee's responsibilities will remain the same regardless of the location
or branch of the organization they work in. Analysts, consultants, managers, and senior
managers, for example, will all be present. A firm like EY, they have specified duties that
you must carry out in order to keep the company going.
If you are new to consulting, you may need to start as an associate consultant or a consultant.
You will begin as an associate consultant and will be promoted to a consultant after twelve
months of work experience. As a consultant or associate consultant, you'll be doing a lot of
analytical work.
You will be promoted to senior consultant after this. In this position, you will have the
opportunity to work autonomously, develop your knowledge, and assist customers in
whatever way they require. It's the start of your new position as a leader.
You may be promoted to manager in the future when you will have management
responsibilities and work on strategic problems. You'll be able to lead a team and deal with
clients once more. Senior consultants are the next step up. You will also receive leadership
training, among other things.
Following that comes the Associate Director. Customer relations and project management
will be the responsibility of the associate director. You'll be in charge of sales as well as
acting as a mentor for consultants.
Partner is one of EY's highest-ranking jobs. You will be responsible for client interactions as
well as bringing on new projects in this job. You'll also be responsible for project
management and assisting managers and executive directors on a variety of initiatives.
