Are you part of the next generation of women in Strategy and Transactions or in Consulting?

Apply now for the NextGen Women 2025. The competition takes place on 14. May (online) and 15. May (in-person) 2025.

We want to be inspired by women like you – purpose-driven women who challenge conventional ways of thinking, dare to ask questions, seek better answers and work to build a better world.

The NextGen Women Competition aims to inspire the next generation of exceptional female talent to pursue an exciting and fulfilling career in Strategy and Transactions or in Consulting.

EY Strategy and Transactions helps enable clients to navigate complexity by reimagining their eco-systems, reshaping their portfolios and reinventing themselves for a better future. Bringing together a global ecosystem of worldclass thinkers, our teams help design and deliver real-world strategies for clients.

We hope to foster a community where women from varying backgrounds can learn, be challenged and develop relationships and skills that will last a lifetime.

Who is this competition for?

The EY NextGen Women competition is designed for female students currently enrolled at a Swiss university (or an equivalent institution) who are interested in a career in Strategy and Transactions or Consulting.

You need to have a Swiss work permit to be able to do an internship at EY in Switzerland. Unfortunately, we do not accept applications with a student permit due to legal constrains.

How do I enter?

To apply, please submit your CV, a copy of your ID, and your Swiss work permit.

As we have limited spaces available, we encourage you to express your interest by applying no later than April 22. Please note that applications that do not include all the required documents will not be considered.

If you have questions, please contact: eynextgenwomen@ch.ey.com

How can I benefit from taking part in this competition?

By entering the competition you can make meaningful connections with EY leadership that will benefit your career. You will have the opportunity to network with like-minded women and EY Strategy & Transactions and Consulting leaders working in a global organization to differentiate yourself from other graduates in an increasingly competitive job market.

What can I win?

The main Swiss winner of the local NextGen Women competition will represent Switzerland at the global final in fall 2025. 

The top candidates will be offered a paid internship in Strategy and Transactions or Consulting teams at one of our Swiss EY offices, based on the availabilities of internship positions.  

The internship should start between September 2025 and March 2026, and last for 6 months.
