As a new graduate, we aim to provide you with 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 of skills and knowledge and work with leading minds across the whole Grant Thornton network.

What we’re looking for

We're looking for 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, speak up, and 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 energizing and stimulating to collaborate – to learn from and be inspired by others. We believe that diverse teams will always outperform the individual

You will join a supportive team who are committed to the highest standards of technical expertise and will enable you to gain a wide range of advisory exposure including:

  • Preparation of company tax returns, including consolidated company tax returns for a wide range of corporate clients

  • Preparation of tax-effect accounting calculations

  • Assisting with tax due diligence, structuring advice, and advisory work

  • Research and assisting with tax consulting advice (such as tax consolidation, tax treaties, international tax, withholding taxes)

This role will suit someone with either a Business, Commerce, or Law Degree who has strong analytical and problem-solving skills, excellent communication skills as well as a strong work ethic, and a genuine interest in helping their clients.  You will also be a self-starter with the ability to understand basic accounting concepts.

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.

Cons

    • It seems that there is not much cross over between different service lines.

    • Sometimes you are required to work after hours.

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

    • While the starting salary may be lower, the potential for growth and advancement is promising.

    • Lots of online training modules to complete at the beginning.
