Currently interviewing with EY NZ as a risk management consultant. 1.5 yoe and expat from US. I have a rough idea for cost of living, so what should my minimum salary expectation be in Auckland? The position would allow me to work from anywhere in NZ but I'd prefer to be close to the office for at least the first year. Thank you!

The big 4 benchmark their salaries each year so they are largely identical. Plus the range at the lower levels is less than 3k from top to bottom of the band.

For a Risk Consultant with 2 years of experience it’s usually about NZD $65k. After your second year is complete it’s more like $72k.

Also keep in mind that 2 of the big 4 pay bonuses down to grad level, the other 2 don’t. And keep in mind whether your offer includes the KiwiSaver (retirement savings) or if that is taken out.

We don’t get many from the US at the lower levels because the pay differential is high (I moved from the US at director level). Big 4 Consulting in NZ doesn’t pay well at all until the senior manager level vs banks etc (which is where a lot of the RC team end up on projects at).
