Job ID: R Job type: Permanent Time type: Full time Categories: Audit & Assurance More than you expected The UK member firms of Grant Thornton are part of global network of independent audit, tax and advisory firms, made up of some 76,000 in over 150 countries. We're a team of independent thinkers who put quality, inclusion and integrity first. All around the world we bring a different experience to our clients. A better experience. One that delivers the expertise they need in a way that goes beyond. Personal, proactive, and agile. 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 is a key moment in our journey from great to exceptional, poising us for growth and development with enhanced technology, a larger client base, and more opportunities for career progression. This is where you come in. We need the best talent to join us on the next stage of our journey. We're looking for senior managers to join our commercial audit practice in locations across the UK. This is your opportunity to take a strategic role in a firm committed to nurturing your growth and taking your career to the next level. Five reasons why you should join our audit practice: Like you, we have ambitious growth plans. With record revenue each year from 2022 onwards, we've set ambitious targets for the years ahead. To make it happen, we need to continue to deliver market-leading quality across our three core client portfolios, while growing our complex and mid-market client base. None of this is possible without the right people. Market-leading performance deserves market-leading rewards. Our people make the firm what it is, and when we win, we win together. In addition to a competitive salary and reward package, we plan to introduce an Employee Benefit Trust (EBT), which will make us the only large firm in the UK to offer equity units to many of our people below partner grade, because we think it's only fair that our people should share the rewards of our firm's growth and success. Culture is everything. Ours is built on trust, flexibility, and inclusion. Life is about more than work. Our audit teams have a high performing culture, but, most importantly, it's one built on trust. We support our teams to deliver their best work by having open conversations at the start of each audit, to make sure there's an understanding of everyone's ways of working and personal commitments. This means we can deliver exceptional work for our clients while respecting our people's work-life balance. That way, we're all working at our best. Your development is our focus. We don't make empty promises about promotions and progression. To nurture our people into the directors and partners of the future, we support your development from day one, working with you to communicate expectations and create clear plans to put you on the pathway for promotion. We continue to invest heavily in our people's skills, too, starting with a £1.2 million investment in first-of-its-kind "3D" Data-Driven Digital mindset training. We keep a keen eye on quality. Delivering for our clients isn't just about the race to the finish line. We care about quality. It's why we're the only firm to ever receive 100% on file reviews - not just once, but twice. Our business leaders are laser-focused on quality, equipping our teams with both the resources and technology to deliver. Our investment opens even more opportunities to bring in new technology to help our teams deliver the highest quality audits.

Meanwhile, liabilities, errors and assessments can also attract interest and penalties. Our clients vary in size and structure and range from FTSE 100 global groups to fast growing entrepreneurial owner managed businesses.
