Looking for a fulfilling career? One that can have a wider impact on society? At Grant Thornton, that's precisely what we offer. A career where you can have your ideas implemented. Your opinions heard. Your contributions valued. Not just by your colleagues, but by coveted clients.

It's a compelling mix. So bring your passion, ambitions and inspiration, and together let’s make it happen.

Our clients rely on us to make sure they do the right thing and are operating within the law. The work we do with our clients is of huge importance. After all, bad tax advice can lead to damaged reputations and expensive consequences. Tax is a cost that is part and parcel of business, and we’re here to help our clients manage their tax obligations efficiently and responsibly.

Tax 12 Month Placement Programme

As a placement in Tax you'll join us for 12 months to experience a year right at the heart of business, working as a fully signed-up member of the team, taking on the same responsibilities as a first year graduate.

What you'll be doing:

• you'll get challenging on-the-ground experience in the two parts of tax advice – compliance and consultancy.
• you could be carrying out technical research, producing tax computations, advising clients on their tax requirements and negotiating with HM Revenue & Customs
• you'll have the chance to be a part of exciting projects beyond the day job which will really help with your development, as well as being a lot of fun
• you'll also travel to our internal training centre, Bradenham manor, for a two-day workshop to help you on your way to becoming a credible business adviser.
• and if all of the above is not enough to keep you busy, you'll spend the course of your placement working on a firm-wide project, which is connected to our purpose, based on a nationwide issue, culminating in an end of internship presentation

Who we're looking for:

• You should share our CLEARR values - Collaboration, Leadership, Excellence, Agility, Respect & Responsibility
• Independent thinkers who aren’t afraid to challenge or be challenged
• Always striving to grow yourself, you should be driven to succeed with the ability to see tasks through to the end and remain agile, even when things don’t go to plan
• Passionate about supporting, advising and helping all kinds of businesses achieve their potential.
• Able to analyse the numbers and back them up with strategic advice, you must be a great relationship builder who can inspire everyone around you with your energy and ideas.
• You should also work well with others and take ownership of the part you play.

We have a flexible approach to academic requirements. We consider academic achievements, but your strengths, motivations and connection with us and our values are more important. We’re looking for people with a broad range of interests and experiences.

Penultimate year undergraduate students can apply. We encourage applications from all degree disciplines.

At Grant Thornton, we are committed to creating a working environment where all colleagues are treated equally, where differences are understood and respected, and everyone feels valued and able to perform at their best. This is our aspiration.
