NEW GROUND WON’T BREAK ITSELF.

Grant Thornton UK LLP is looking for a motivated and enthusiastic Senior Manager to join their successful Public Sector Financial Reporting team. Our team is proud to support the UK’s largest public sector external audit practice to deliver high quality audits which provide assurance to the public and wider stakeholders and add value to the public sector organisations we work with.

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.

Now’s the time to take everything you know about financial reporting to the next level, supporting our engagement teams in their work with our growing portfolio of clients. The constantly evolving landscape calls for an approach that puts what is right first, ahead of what is easy, and you will need to push ideas harder and ask difficult questions, giving our teams the support and guidance they need.

Within our firm, we’re very keen to support and hire those who have had career breaks or time away from audit and financial reporting, who would like to return to a busy, flexible role. Our vacancies are all open to supporting the up-skilling and re-integration of returners to our business.

We’re happy to talk flexible working and consider reduced hours and job shares, we’ll support you to balance your work and life.

  • present, or support presenters, at both internal and external events
  • represent the firm on external technical networks
  • contribute to the firm’s responses to technical consultations
  • identify opportunities arising from changes in legislation or financial reporting and deliver valuable solutions to develop the firm's service offerings in the public sector
  • build and maintain strong working relationships with our audit teams
  • work closely with your colleagues in our Financial Reporting and Audit Quality teams
  • constantly strive to push yourself, and the business, further, knowing you’re supported through every stage
