How Charlie is building a better world

"At EY, we have always played a critical role in the economy by helping organisations earn, maintain, and demonstrate a level of trust. It's part of our DNA. But, the world is changing. Data is an increasingly valuable personal and corporate asset, and today’s connected economy is built on data exchange. The maintenance of trust in the expanding business ecosystem is critical to keep data flowing; without trust, our economy stops.

My interests lie in helping clients seize commercial opportunities yet maintain trust in a world of social media, cloud, mobile 'appification', big data and internet tracking, where 'if you're not paying for the product then you are the product'. We build a better working world by helping our clients address the evolving challenges required to participate and prosper in today’s economy."
