EY Ireland plans to increase its workforce across Ireland to 5,100 people, as it eyes a major shake-up of its business across the world.  

The accounting and business services firm, which was formerly called Ernst & Young, also said its all-Ireland revenues had reached a new high of €536m, and confirmed it would participate in a worldwide reorganisation following a strategic review that was carried out by its partners across the world.
