Job Description
You already know what an Audit Assistant Manager does, so we want to tell you what it’s like to work within Audit at Grant Thornton, and what can we offer you that others don’t.
Why Audit at Grant Thornton
Our UK audit practice is built of over 2300 people working across 24 locations, and supported by 50 audit partners. We’re really proud of the strong position our audit practice is in from a wellbeing, resource and quality perspective, the latter of which is shown through our recent positive AQR results.
Every day our teams help people in businesses and communities to do what is right and achieve their goals. Our tailored and responsive approach provides the expertise our clients need,
enabling them to grow and make the right decisions about their future.
Our size and culture allow us to give you more opportunities within your career. You will have more responsibility for client outputs, and more variety in the work you take on and the clients you work with.
You can develop your career in a way that works for you, and the firm, and we’ll support you with development programmes and opportunities along the way.
Life is about more than work
The things you do, and the people you’re with outside of work matter, that’s why we’re happy to look at flexible working options for all our roles, whether that’s reduced or condensed hours, job shares, we’ll always do our best to keep your work and life in balance.
Everyone in the firm is encouraged to work in a hybrid way, want to go for a run at 3pm, or collect children from school?
That’s fine with us if it fits with your client work. Our framework for how we work underpins our approach,
giving us all the confidence to make decisions that work for us, and our teams.

Our open and accessible culture means you’ll interact with leaders who are interested in you and everything you bring to our firm.
The things that set you apart, we value them. That’s why we give you the freedom to bring your whole self to work and pursue your passions inside and outside of work.
