Every day our teams help people in businesses and communities to do what is right and achieve their goals. Our tailored and responsive approach provides the expertise our clients need, enabling them to grow and make the right decisions about their future.

Our Commercial Audit team in the Birmingham region works with clients which operate across a wide variety of sectors including manufacturing, distribution, retail and technology. Our main focus is on the mid-market working with private equity backed and privately owned businesses. In addition, one of the firm’s centres of excellence is based in Birmingham through which a team focus on Public Interest Entity audits including listed entities and large private groups. This means Birmingham is uniquely placed to offer both mid-market and listed entity audits.

Our size and culture allow us to give you more opportunities within your career. You will have more responsibility for client outputs, more variety in the work you take on and the clients you work with and we will work with you to understand your preference and skill set in order to determine your portfolio. You can develop your career in a way that works for you, and the firm, and we’ll support you with development programmes and opportunities along the way.

We’re keen to support and hire those who have had career breaks or time away from Audit in industry roles, who would like to return to a busy, flexible auditing role. Our vacancies for qualified Auditors are all open to supporting the up-skilling and re-integration of returners to our business.

Life is about more than work

The things you do, and the people you’re with outside of work matter, that’s why we’re happy to look at flexible working options for all our roles, whether that’s reduced or condensed hours, job shares, we’ll always do our best to keep your work and life in balance. Everyone in the firm is encouraged to work in a hybrid way, want to go for a run at 3pm, or collect children from school? That’s fine with us if it fits with your client work. Our framework for how we work underpins our approach, giving us all the confidence to make decisions that work for us, and our teams.

Knowing we’re right for you

Embracing uniqueness, the culture at Grant Thornton thrives on the contributions of all our people, we never settle for what is easy, we look beyond to deliver the right thing, for everyone. Building an inclusive culture, where we value difference and respect our colleagues helps our people to perform at the best of their ability and realise their potential.

Our open and accessible culture means you’ll interact with leaders who are interested in you and everything you bring to our firm. The things that set you apart, we value them. That’s why we give you the freedom to bring your whole self to work and pursue your passions inside and outside of work.
