Grant Thornton UK is part of a global network of professional services firms, spanning 140+ countries. In the UK, 5,000+ people work across 23 offices, collaborating with dynamic businesses, communities and individuals to help them make a real impact. An apprenticeship with Grant Thornton isn’t just a route to qualification – it’s a launchpad for a career in audit, tax or advisory. With new technology, evolving markets and shifting client needs in accountancy, the firm is looking for new apprentices ready to get curious, drive change, and shape the future. Over four to five years, apprentices receive structured learning and real-world exposure, working towards two professional qualifications (Level 4 and 7) funded by Grant Thornton. School leavers with A-levels (or equivalent) can become qualified – often ahead of their university-bound peers, and without the student debt. The firm takes a fresh approach to recruitment, looking beyond grades and exam performance to assess potential through curiosity, motivation, and alignment with their values. It’s not just about what candidates know – it’s about how they think, what drives them, and how they’ll grow. Equipped with the tools and technology to thrive, plus support from subject- matter experts, a dedicated career coach, and senior leaders, apprentices can build the skills and confidence to excel in professional services. Once qualified, the opportunities open up – whether it’s exploring new business areas, progressing within their team, or even working abroad at one of Grant Thornton’s global member firms. With a culture grounded in their values of being purposefully driven, actively curious and candid but kind, Grant Thornton’s future is bright – and so are their apprentices.
