Get to know us, our clients and start learning more about yourself. As a placement student in our Financial Services Tax team, you’ll join us for 12 months for an opportunity to get stuck in with real responsibility, gain an insight into life as a trainee and fast track to a graduate role.
We spoke to our people about what makes Grant Thornton different and why they chose to join the firm.
You’ll be providing bespoke advice to our clients on UK and international tax laws and regulations, along with their application and other direct, indirect, and operational tax issues. The constantly evolving landscape calls for an approach that puts what’s right first, so you will need to push ideas harder and ask the difficult questions to give clients the assurance they need to support their ambitions and growth.
The Financial Services Tax practice is a 35-strong team of tax professionals providing advisory and compliance services to our core sectors: asset management, retail and investment, insurance and all types of financial intermediaries. Our clients value the combination of tax technical expertise and sector/market knowledge.
Our 12-month placement programme is designed so you can experience life working right at the heart of the business. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll experience during your year with us:
