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 in more than 150 countries. We are a team of independent thinkers who prioritize quality, inclusion, and integrity. Globally, we aim to bring a diverse experience to our clients—delivering a better, personal, 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 significant milestone in our journey from being great to becoming exceptional. It positions us for growth and development through enhanced technology, a broader client base, and increased opportunities for career progression.

This is where you come in. We need top talent to join us on the next stage of our journey.

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

Here are five reasons to join our audit practice:

1. Ambitious growth plans: We have set ambitious targets supported by record revenue from 2022 onwards. To achieve this, we need to deliver market-leading quality across our core client portfolios and expand our complex and mid-market client base. Our success depends on the right people.
2. 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, sharing in our growth and success.
3. Culture built on trust, flexibility, and inclusion: We believe life extends beyond work. Our high-performing audit teams operate in a culture founded on trust, where open conversations about work and personal commitments ensure exceptional client service while respecting work-life balance.
4. Focus on your development: We support your growth from day one, with clear communication and pathways for promotion. We also 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 our core. We are the only firm to have received 100% on file reviews twice. Our leadership is dedicated to maintaining high standards, providing resources and technology to enable our teams to deliver the highest quality audits.
