Colin Ryan has moved up to the post of country leader for Financial Services division at EY Ireland, following the move by Eoin McManus to the job of leading the company’s Global NextWave strategic initiative.

The unit employs over 700 people, including 30 partners. It provides services in assurance, tax and consulting to clients across sectors including wealth and asset management, banking and capital markets, and insurance.  

Managing partner Frank O’Keeffe said: “I am delighted that Colin has taken on this role as leader of financial services in our firm. “Because of the quality and breadth of our client solutions and our world class teams, financial services clients are increasingly turning to EY to help them solve their most complex business problems in a fast evolving marketplace.”

Since then the practice has doubled in size, according to EY, winning several high-profile tech-enabled engagements as well as delivering regulatory and compliance programmes for clients including PTSB, AIB and Bank of Ireland.
