Sandy Wight is a People Advisory Services Partner at Ernst & Young LLP (EY) in Seattle, Washington. EY PAS helps organizations move their talent to areas where there are the greatest growth opportunities, providing a seamless journey for mobile employees. PAS helps clients manage people-related risk, align their talent strategy to their business strategy; and adapt to the new work environment and changing expectations of the workforce.
Sandy graduated with a MAcc from BYU in 1990. She started her tax career at Arthur Andersen (AA) in Seattle and remained with AA until a friend from high school convinced her to make a pivotal career change and move to EY. Sandy will be forever grateful for the move to EY where she found her niche in PAS providing global companies with services supporting one of their greatest assets–their people. She’s worked with a large variety of clients over her career. She’s currently focused on Fortune 500 clients in the technology and consumer products industries. She recently helped a client implement an end-to-end solution to track their mobile employees, mitigate their tax risk and meet their reporting and compliance requirements.
BYU holds a special place within Sandy’s heart. She met her husband at BYU in a film studies class, her two oldest children graduated from BYU, she frequently helps EY with recruiting from BYU and recently, she was the BYU Alumni Seattle area chapter chairman. Sandy enjoys spending time with her family (3 children and 2 grandchildren), traveling to beautiful beaches around the world and watching movies with her husband.
