Our program

As a new graduate, we aim to provide you more than just your 'traditional' graduate program; instead we kick start your career as an Associate and support you to turn theory into practice.

You'll receive on-the-job learning, as well as technical and professional skill development through our structured learning programs, by working with our leaders and being involved in client work right from the beginning.

We don't work in silos – meaning you'll get exposure to clients across a broad range of industries. It also means that cross-team and cross-office collaboration is just part of what we do, giving you the opportunity to develop a breadth skills and knowledge, and work with leading minds across the whole Grant Thornton network.

What we're looking for

We're looking for driven, well-rounded candidates who connect with our clients, our purpose and our culture and want to make an impact right from the start.

In addition to studying towards a relevant qualification, we're looking for people who are curious, ambitious and who value the things we value:

  • We empower our people to make a difference. We want our people to think for themselves, to speak up, and to actively shape our firm's culture and future.
  • We genuinely care about our clients. As part of our work, we discover what's important to them and enjoy helping them succeed.
  • We want our people to bring their whole selves to work. Individuality and authenticity are very important to our firm.
  • We highly value collaboration. We believe that it's energising and stimulating to collaborate – to learn from and be inspired by others. We believe that diverse teams will always outperform the individual.

  • in your final year of study (i.e. graduating no later than December 2020), or have completed a relevant undergraduate or postgraduate degree within the last 2 years; and

Please note: opportunities in our Consulting teams do not require candidates to be eligible for entry into the Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand CA Program upon completion of their degree.

Pros and cons of working at Grant Thornton Australia

Pros

  • The people, culture and work-life balance.

  • Grant Thornton is truly an exceptional place to work. The firm really values diversity and inclusivity, and actively supports various charities.

  • The flexibility of home and office.

  • Exposure to a number of types of clients, good structure, really nice offices, good culture, other associates always ready to give you a hand.

  • 9 day working fortnights during quiet periods has been amazing. It helps incentivise me to finish my work earlier so I can get time off.

    • Sometimes you are required to work after hours.

    • Sometimes you will need to visit the client that is quite far away.
