Ernst & Young (E&Y) sees appointing new partners as a vital part of its strategy during economically tough times, the firm has revealed.
The company has just announced that it appointed 12 new direct entry partners during the first quarter of its financial year and plans to recruit more during the run up to Christmas.
Scott Halliday, managing partner at E&Y, explained that the firm wants to make sure it continues to offer an excellent service to clients when they need it most.
He said: "All of the partners who have joined us since July 1st bring deep sector and cross-border experience to our business, keeping us agile and able to respond to the needs of our global, mid-market and entrepreneurial clients."
Earlier this year, the firm was handed the Exceptional Achievement prize at this year's Managing Partners' Forum European Practice Management Awards.
The accolade was in recognition of E&Y's efforts to integrate all of its 87 practices across Europe, the Middle East, India and Africa.
