How Philip is building a better working world 

“I have relished simplifying our business, thereby allowing our partners and people the maximum opportunity to be with our clients, solving and advising on their complex business issues. I am also a strong promoter of the Ripples program we have introduced across EY MENA, which provides mentoring, support and giving back experiences for our people.”
