Much of the value we offer our clients is
created through the specialist skills and deep knowledge of our
people. So it’s not surprising that training and development are
taken very seriously at Grant Thornton.
The approach here is all about giving everyone
the energetic support and first-class resources they need to drive
their own learning. Once we have an understanding of your
aspirations, recognise your strengths and identify your development
needs we encourage you to draw up a personal development plan and
set your objectives. This process is supported by your line manager
and tailored to your individual needs.
To realise this plan, there is a huge range of
formal and informal learning opportunities for you to explore. You
might, for example, take part in a networking event where knowledge
is shared and issues are discussed. You could attend one of the
formal training courses run out of our training facility in the
countryside. Or you might take advantage of our burgeoning suite of
e-learning modules, which enable everyone in the firm to follow
their own interests at a pace that suits them.
And of course, one of the best ways to grow
professionally is by gaining new experiences. The size and shape of
Grant Thornton’s business mean the possibilities for career
mobility are practically endless. If you’re interested in trying
fresh challenges, there’s always a new sector to investigate, a new
client group to work with, or even a new service area to learn
about.
The opportunities aren’t limited to the UK
either. As part of the Grant Thornton International network of
member firms, we’re in a position to offer secondments and
permanent roles on a truly global scale.
