Canada Women Network

The Canada Women’s Consulting Network’s supports the success of women in our consulting practice in Canada. We bring women together to help one another expand knowledge, grow capabilities, find purpose, extend networks, reach goals and above all: realize their power.


Flexibility fosters personal and professional success.

Careers don’t exist in silos. Real success harmonizes what we hope to accomplish professionally with what matters to us personally. At EY, we ground our culture in flexibility, and elevate that commitment with programs and policies that speak to today’s realities.

Flexible work arrangements. Extended vacation programs. Mobility, secondment and learning opportunities. Our people have different priorities, interests and needs. We’ve built our way of working accordingly.

Advocacy and mentorship drive meaningful action and progress.

Gender equity is everyone’s responsibility. That’s why we extend our focus on diversity, equity and inclusion to advocate broadly and boldly for female talent within EY, and across the market. Our EY Winning Women program identifies high-potential women entrepreneurs in Canada and the US, and then connects them with the access, resources and mentorship they need to scale their businesses, and unlock their potential.
