At EY, we’re all in to shape your future with confidence.
We’ll help you succeed in a globally connected powerhouse of diverse teams and take your career wherever you want it to go. Join EY and help to build a better working world.
EY is the only professional services firm with a separate business unit (“FSO”) that is dedicated to the financial services marketplace. Our FSO teams have been at the forefront of every event that has reshaped and redefined the financial services industry. This practice also has several Service Delivery Centers that are made up of high-performing US-based resources who work closely with our experienced client serving professionals to deliver project-based work and managed services to our US-based Financial Services clients. If you have a passion for rallying together to solve the most complex challenges in the financial services industry, come join our dynamic FSO team!
The Opportunity
Innovation and automation are at the heart of what we do every day. You must stay on the leading edge of technology and use it to create bespoke solutions to solve problems for our clients. Specifically, your mission will be to design, build, deploy and customize complex technical solutions to accelerate and streamline software application delivery and system integration projects.
Most of our projects are built in Java but you will also be exposed to different technologies including web (Angular, React, etc), other languages (.NET, python, etc), web/microservices and databases. A key part of innovation is using the right tool for the job so you’ll always have opportunity to learn and leverage new technology as it comes out such as machine learning, natural language processing (NLP) and data analytics. Our clients look to us to solve their problems not just deploy software they could do themselves so this means you’ll be expected to build custom frameworks, tools and utilities such as custom automation drivers, JSON and XML parsers, integrations between tools and extend existing frameworks to provide new, cutting edge technologies.
Most of our work is specifically aimed at accelerating and enhancing software testing. Manual testing can be inefficient and many of today’s complex systems and technologies can’t be tested manually. Even traditional automated testing is outdated so it’s our job to build new tools and technology to do it better.
Your Key Responsibilities
Everything you’ll do will come back to providing exceptional testing subject matter expertise and solving complex problems that make a difference for our clients. Colleagues and clients from a diverse array of backgrounds will look to you first for answers, so you’ll be a high-profile contact when it comes to resolving complex issues. As you build your knowledge and experience, you’ll become a credible advisor, influencing clients and engagement teams on resolutions that will impact entire industries.
Skills and attributes for success
- Working with clients to drive transformational change in the way they deliver application testing services in their organizations
- Conduct tests and undertake analysis of results to ensure that software meets or exceeds specified standards and/or client requirements
- Defining the test strategy, planning, implementing and quality assurance for large complex projects
- Teaming with business organizations to facilitate User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
- Coaching teams members with a goal of fostering an innovative and inclusive team-oriented work environment
- Sharing your knowledge and developing engagement tools and enablers to build capability for the practice
- Cultivating business development opportunities and supporting sales.
To qualify, you must have
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Accounting, Finance or a related field and approximately 5 years of relevant work experience
- Excellent collaboration and teaming skills in diverse environments
- Technical competency experience with Test Strategy & Operating Model Development, Testing Center of Excellence/IT Transformation Program Management, Test Automation Framework Architecture, Agile Test Management, User Acceptance Test Coordination, IT Organizational Change Management, Performance Testing Program Management, Customer Relationship Management, Enterprise Resource Planning, Enterprise Data Management, IT Life cycle Management or IT Delivery Management
Ideally, you’ll also have
- Approximately 3 years of financial services experience, including, prior consulting experience
- Relevant industry certification such as, CISSP, CISM, CISA, CBCP, ITIL, PMP or other specialized IT certifications
- A “go-getter” attitude, passion to constantly learn, improve and perform at the highest level
What we look for
We’re interested in leaders with a genuine creative vision and the confidence to make it happen. You can expect plenty of autonomy and variety in this role, so you’ll also need the ability to be nimble, take initiative and seek out opportunities to improve our current relationships and prioritize participation in practice initiatives that will generate a long term pipeline of sales for the firm. If you’re serious about progressing and ready to take on some of our clients’ most complex issues, this role is for you.

Search Accounting Jobs in New YorkAccounting H-1B Sponsorship Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
Which accounting companies sponsor H-1B visas in New York?
The Big Four firms, Deloitte, PwC, KPMG, and Ernst & Young, are among the most consistent H-1B visa sponsors for accounting roles in New York, based on Department of Labor LCA disclosure data. Mid-size regional firms such as Grant Thornton, BDO, and Marcum also file H-1B petitions regularly. Large financial institutions including JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, and Citigroup sponsor H-1B holders for internal accounting and finance functions as well.
Which cities in New York have the most accounting H-1B sponsorship jobs?
Manhattan accounts for the overwhelming majority of accounting H-1B positions in New York, driven by the concentration of financial services firms, Big Four offices, and multinational corporate headquarters in Midtown and Lower Manhattan. Buffalo and Albany have a smaller but present market, primarily through regional accounting firms and state government contractors. For international candidates, New York City is where sponsorship activity is most concentrated.
What types of accounting roles typically qualify for H-1B sponsorship?
Roles that require a specific bachelor's degree or higher in accounting, finance, or a related field generally meet the H-1B specialty occupation standard. This includes positions such as staff accountant, senior auditor, tax associate, financial reporting analyst, and forensic accountant. General bookkeeping or clerical accounting roles that do not require a relevant degree as a minimum qualification are unlikely to qualify. CPA licensure or a master's degree strengthens a petition but is not strictly required.
How do I find accounting H-1B sponsorship jobs in New York?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for this search. You can filter by visa type, industry, and state to surface accounting roles in New York where employers have a documented history of H-1B sponsorship. This removes the guesswork of identifying which firms are open to sponsoring international candidates. Migrate Mate focuses exclusively on visa sponsorship jobs, so every listing you see is relevant to your situation as an H-1B candidate.
Are there any New York-specific considerations for H-1B accounting sponsorship?
New York's high concentration of financial services employers means many H-1B accounting petitions are filed for roles subject to specific licensing requirements, particularly CPA credentials for certain audit and attest functions. New York State has its own CPA licensure pathway, and some employers factor licensing timelines into their sponsorship decisions for entry-level candidates. Additionally, prevailing wage determinations in the New York City metro area reflect one of the highest cost-of-labor markets in the country, which affects the wage level an employer must certify on the Labor Condition Application.
What is the prevailing wage for H-1B accounting jobs in New York?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
