Ernst & Young has announced the admission of 17 new partners to the UK firm with immediate effect taking the total number of partners we have admitted over the last six months to 29.
The appointments are across the firm in all service lines and industry sectors as well as up and down the UK.
Mark Otty, Chairman of Ernst & Young in the UK and Managing Partner Northern Europe Middle East, India and Africa (NEMIA), said: ìWe are very confident in the future growth prospects of our firm: Ernst & Young in the UK has grown by nearly 50% in the last three years and across the NEMIA area growth has been exceptional with India, South Africa and the Middle East increasing revenues by more than 40% in 2007 alone.
ìOur global strategy of twinning more mature markets with emerging ones and our unique NEMIA operating model are widely acknowledged as a powerful approach and have cemented our reputation for providing exceptional services to clients.
ìErnst & Young in the UK is differentiating itself in the market place through our distinctive values campaign which has received a favourable response from our people, our clients and other stakeholders. We have recruited record numbers of staff at all levels and are committed to continued investment in new partners to drive our business forward.
ìNot only do we have the most international and diverse leadership of any major professional services firm in the UK but we have the highest number of female partners amongst the top six firms.
ìAs well as promoting from within we have also made a major investment in direct entry partners. The firm has built itself a deserved reputation for not only promoting quality candidates internally but attracting the brightest and the best from the external market place. We expect to make plenty more of these appointments throughout 2008.î
