EY Senior Consultant - Business Transformation – TD&E Oil & Gas
The energy landscape is rapidly changing as our clients seek to define and adopt new models for responding to the market. Our clients are actively seeking to transform themselves into nimble, globally integrated operations. These organizations recognize that their ability to drive internal change is itself a competitive advantage. In this environment, EY is rapidly seeking to grow our local, energy industry-serving team.
As part of our Transformation Design and Execution (TDE) team, you will work with the senior leadership teams in our key accounts to structure and implement change, as well as creating the capability within our clients to drive change. You will merge your domain experience with program management knowledge to implement and embed improvements and deliver sustainable value.
The Oil & Gas Transformation Design & Execution practice @ EY provides a rewarding career opportunity, targeted toward becoming a professional in the business and technology of energy. If you have a passion for rallying together to solve the most complex challenges in today’s energy marketplace, come join our dynamic TD&E team!
The opportunity
Our clients are seeking and hiring a new type of Transformation Design expert – one who can integrate a background in energy with the delivery and success of their programs; someone who can talk both the language of consulting and of engineering. Our client stakeholders expect a consultant with strong engineering or process industry experience. Traditional consulting vendors often cannot provide the focused services that our energy clients now demand.
Our insights and capabilities across all portfolio levels in planning, analysis and delivery are integrated into our core offerings, differentiating our services from more traditional program management.
We are not just a ‘Strategy House.’ We pride ourselves on our ability to provide a full, integrated service: strategy definition, execution, and creating the feedback loop from execution back into definition.
Your key responsibilities
A successful Transformation Design and Execution Senior will work with our clients to design and establish a Transformation Management Office (TMO), Program Management Office (PMO) and/or Project or Product Portfolio Management Office. Some seniors may also be involved in identifying and implementing opportunities to drive digital innovation, such as Artificial Intelligence, within the energy sector. Seniors will apply proven EY frameworks and methodologies based on industry-recognized global standards.

- Transformation Program Design
- Capability Roadmap Development and Execution
- Assessments and Process Design
