Your key responsibilities
As a GDS-QS team member, you will work closely with EY colleagues in Australia and/or New Zealand to support companies to access Government Incentives that aim to incentivize companies in these countries to invest in innovation. Drawing on your technical knowledge gained from your education or experience in industry, you will primarily advise and support our clients in accessing Research and Development (“R&D”) tax incentives, as well as potentially other government grants and innovation related government/growth incentives.
You will be working with a variety of clients at the forefront of technology, including some of the largest global corporations, to evaluate and prepare their Government Incentive proposals and applications. You will work closely with our clients’ engineers and scientists and will be responsible for analysing technological aspects of their projects. You will play an active role in developing technical reports of clients’ projects and taking part in client communication. This role will require you to work in close collaboration within a geographically diverse, team-based and consultancy environment. It will also require you to have strong technical knowledge, technical report writing skills, interpersonal and communication skills, and project management skills.
In our friendly, high performing, collaborative environment, you’ll receive the support, formal training and coaching you need to progress quickly along your career path. Not to mention access to the opportunity to be exposed and keep up to date with the novel business models, cutting-edge technology trends and developments.
As a GDS-QS team member, you will also be part of an exciting and diverse group of Manila-based EY professionals. The GDS-QS team in Manila is recently established and is expected to grow rapidly. This is an ideal opportunity for proactive leaders interested in fast-tracking their career journey.
I'm in charge of multiple paper works for clients.
Manageable
I engage in work-based learning sessions whenever I am not assigned to a project. I have already gained valuable experience from my first engagement, where I was responsible for updating walkthroughs and conducting testing. So far, I have maintained a good work-life balance.

One of the things I appreciate the most is the company culture regarding asking questions. Since I am an engineering graduate with no prior experience or exposure to business tax, I went into my job blind and confused about many things. Both the Manila and SG teams have been very helpful in helping me settle into my role and clearing up any confusions with the work given to me. There's no such thing as "stupid questions"; if you really don't know something, you are encouraged to ask and not default to figuring it out on your own
The hierarchy is very complex, and you tend to get passed around when you ask questions
The onboarding process was quite overwhelming
The traffic outside
The base pay is somewhat competitive within the industry. The presence of a variable bonus makes the compensation package very appealing. These bonuses are tied to performance, company profitability, and individual achievements, providing a strong incentive for employees to excel in their roles
Not the worst, but one minor issue I have (probably just because I'm new to the set-up) is that I'm working closely with a team that I don't even see or talk to in person. Being the first in the BTA-QS team to support SG, I only have my onshore counterparts and teammates to consult with for work questions and other related things. It feels weird to me for the time being, but I'll get used to it with time
