Audit

Think of an auditor as a guardian of trust in the financial world. As an auditor, you're like a detective for numbers, making sure that financial reports are trustworthy and that the money markets run smoothly. We work closely with the management of the companies to review processes and identify risks with the support of global methodology and modern tools. EY is one of Denmark's leading audit firms and is the auditor for the largest companies in Denmark. The profession is undergoing significant change, and the effective use of technology is becoming increasingly important. 

Combine your ability to communicate and build relationships with academic excellence and advanced technology use, and you'll learn to ask better questions and get better answers.

Technology Risk

In Technology Risk, we help our customers manage risks related to information security, technology and data, and help clients build trust by providing independent assurance on information security, technology, software, processes, or controls. To achieve this, it is important to understand the business: what drives value, business processes and the environment in which the business operates. Our projects are varied, but all create value by identifying and managing risk. We provide consulting services and independent third-party assessments of the IT environment that support the client's main business and build trust in the reporting of financial data.

In our day-to-day work we support our colleagues from the financial audit teams, we provide assurance reports to companies, and we help businesses comply with legislation within IT security and GDPR.

Financial Accounting Advisory Services

In Financial Accounting Advisory Services (FAAS), we handle diverse tasks, from fraud investigations to aiding with IPOs, and lead the way in sustainability reporting and CFO advisory. Our clients vary from small family-owned businesses to publicly listed global companies and include both public- and private-sector companies in almost any industry. This variety provides you as a graduate with unique learning opportunities, where no two days are alike.

In FAAS, the average employee is young, which brings a fresh vibe to the team dynamic. Hard work accompanied by social events - a combination that we believe, is the perfect recipe for great success and long-lasting friendships.

FAAS’ services are divided into four service areas with a common social and commercial structure. The teams have a vast variety of different backgrounds, which is crucial for us to provide better solutions for increasingly more complex problems. Please find the area of your interest. We very much hope to get you on-board.

Climate Change and Sustainability Services

To survive and grow in an increasingly competitive and accountable business environment, organizations are required to report and act not only on their financial performance, but also their nonfinancial performance.

Ignoring sustainability and environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks and stakeholder concerns around these issues is no longer an option. While CFOs may not have traditionally led the way, they are increasingly expected to play a more active role.

EY’s Climate Change and Sustainability Services (CCaSS) team understands the evolving pressure surrounding these challenges. As a result, we help companies respond by understanding and evaluating the broader value impacts and outcomes, identifying the opportunities, and supporting the reporting of nonfinancial performance risks to their stakeholders.

Our services include advisory on emerging legislation, best-practice reporting on non-financial performance, assurance on sustainability information, due diligence regarding ESG, and sustainability matters and advisory about strategy and transition plans for sustainability matters.

We also help to support finance functions with robust financial data analytics and innovation and support processes of IPOs.

Forensic & Integrity Services

Successful organizations depend on their reputation for keeping promises, respecting laws and behaving ethically to maintain stakeholder trust. Therefore, we help organizations protect and restore enterprise and financial reputation. We assist companies and their legal counsel to investigate facts, resolve disputes and manage regulatory challenges. We put integrity at the heart of compliance to help better manage ethical and reputational risks.

In Forensic & Integrity Services we help mitigate the loss of trust by advising on the implementation of internal controls, conducting stakeholder due diligence, and advising on data safety. Besides helping to mitigate, we are also capable of leading forensic investigations to uncover the true course of action. Our services also include mitigation of disputes risks, transaction forensic and cyber- and incident response.

Hence our field of work, we are primarily looking for graduates within the field of economics, finance, law, data analytics and/or technology e.g.: cand.merc.(aud.), cand.pol., cand.merc.(jur.), cand.merc.(ibp.), cand.polit, cand.jur. data science or similar.
