Employer Profile


About us…
What makes Grant Thornton stand out as an accountancy firm? We are big enough to take on any challenge, but small enough to take a genuine and personal interest in our clients and people. We are agile enough to respond quickly, excited by business and all its possibilities. We are enthusiastic, down to earth and approachable.

Grant Thornton is one of the world’s leading names in accounting and consulting with a presence in over 100 countries. In the UK, we have more than 4,000 people and over 40,000 clients. We take on graduates, placements and interns in audit, tax and advisory in over 20 of our offices around the country.

About you…
What are we looking for? People with a genuine interest in business who listen critically, dig beneath the surface, challenge assumptions and are credible and confident enough to make suggestions right from the start. They know it’s about more than just the numbers, it’s about enjoying tough challenges and seeking out opportunities to make a difference.

About the role…
The 200 trainees we take on each year get variety and responsibility. They work on a huge range of clients in many different sectors. Most of the clients are international businesses, so there are plenty of opportunities to work on global accounts and for secondments abroad.

The training programme gives people the experience and qualifications they need to kick start a fast-moving career right at the heart of business.

Existing trainees emphasise early opportunity, the challenging work and the ability to shape their own careers. They also say that you get well rewarded and you become a well-rounded business adviser.
