Job description

More than you expected

The UK member firms of Grant Thornton are part of a global network of independent audit, tax, and advisory firms, comprising over 76,000 professionals across more than 150 countries. We are a team of independent thinkers who prioritize quality, inclusion, and integrity. Globally, we bring diverse experiences to our clients—delivering a better, more personalized, proactive, and agile service. That’s Grant Thornton.

Job Description:

We have around 500 words to convince you to apply for one of our senior manager roles. Here’s why you should choose us.

Our investment from Cinven marks a pivotal moment in our journey from great to exceptional, positioning us for growth through enhanced technology, a broader client base, and increased career opportunities.

We need the best talent to join us on this next stage of our journey.

We’re seeking senior managers to join our commercial audit practice across various UK locations. This is your chance to play a strategic role in a firm dedicated to nurturing your growth and advancing your career.

Five reasons to join our audit practice:

1. Like you, we have ambitious growth plans.

Since 2022, we have achieved record revenues and have set ambitious targets for the future. To succeed, we must continue delivering market-leading quality across our core client portfolios while expanding our complex and mid-market client base. Achieving this depends on having the right people.

2. Market-leading performance deserves market-leading rewards.

Our people are our greatest asset. Alongside a competitive salary and benefits, we plan to introduce an Employee Benefit Trust (EBT), making us the only large UK firm to offer equity units to staff below partner level. We believe our team should share in the rewards of our growth and success.

3. Culture built on trust, flexibility, and inclusion.

Life is about more than work. Our high-performing audit teams foster a culture rooted in trust. We support open conversations at the start of each audit to understand individual working styles and commitments, enabling us to deliver exceptional client service while respecting work-life balance.

4. Your development is our focus.

We are committed to your growth from day one, with clear communication of expectations and promotion pathways. We invest heavily in skills development, including a £1.2 million investment in innovative "3D" Data-Driven Digital mindset training.

5. Commitment to quality.

Quality is at the core of our service. We are the only firm to receive 100% on file reviews twice, reflecting our dedication. Our leaders focus intensely on quality, providing resources and technology to support top-tier audits, including ongoing investments in new technology to enhance our service delivery.
