About Us

Grant Thornton is a great place to start a business career. As the UK’s fifth biggest accountancy firm, we can offer you fantastic opportunities to get involved in challenging projects, learn from experienced colleagues, and gain valuable qualifications that are recognised around the world. What’s more, we’re also part of an international group of independently owned firms, active in 120 countries. So we’re a major player on the global stage too.

We work with more than 40,000 clients in the UK, providing services in three key areas: audit, tax and advisory. Each of these service areas has a different focus, but the aims are broadly the same. In essence, we use our expertise to help clients measure and improve their financial performance, and also understand and control their risks.

With us, you can enjoy the friendly and personal culture you’d normally only find in much smaller firms. But, since there are 4,000 of us working in 30 offices across the country, you’ll have the wide-ranging opportunities you’d expect to find in a large global organisation.
