At Grant Thornton, we see the world a little differently – not for how things are, but for how they could be. And when it comes to people, we see you differently too. Not as resources to be used up, but as resourceful humans – with near limitless potential to unlock and harness.
Every day we reach for remarkable – in the opportunities we unlock, the experience we share and the results we deliver. But unleashing the remarkable in each of us takes CARE, that connects our passion with the purpose we live by. It’s why we go beyond in the way we care for our people, clients and communities, and support them to thrive, always.
Life's too short for a cookie-cutter career that treats you like another cog in the machine. So from the get-go, when you join us, you'll quickly discover that our approach to our Graduate and Vacation programs will challenge your curiosity and fuel your passion and ambition, empowering you to build a one-of-a-kind career path.
More than that, as leaders in accounting, tax and advisory services, we're committed to setting you up for success through our remarkable support network within a globally integrated firm filled with possibilities. With six offices across Australia and partner firms in more than 135 countries, wherever you want to go, we can take you there.
No two careers are the same. Beyond your university degree, academics and on-campus experiences, we recognise that who you are, together with your personal experiences, are the key to how we harness your potential.
Enjoy remarkable support
The best way to reach for remarkable is to take action. With us, you'll be ready to hit the ground running and inspired to discover a challenging and rewarding world of work around every corner. Moreover, we'll set out to expose you to exciting clients, projects and industries early and often to help you build your skills and drive your career journey.

Application updates
We are fortunate enough to receive a large volume of applications for our graduate and vacation opportunities each year. We want to ensure every application is assessed individually and fairly so for this reason, assessing each application takes time. We ask for your patience and understanding throughout the application process.
You will always hear back from us regarding the outcome of your application - so if you have not been contacted yet, that means your application is still being considered, and you will hear from our team as soon as possible.
Applications for each office and service line are reviewed at different stages, however, we aim to minimise the wait time for candidates wherever possible. We will keep you updated at each stage of the recruitment process.
Once you have submitted your application, please ensure you regularly monitor your email and check your junk/spam mail settings as further updates regarding your application will be delivered via email.

Should you require any adaptations to the recruitment process or need any additional support from us to help you perform at your best, we encourage you to select the option when prompted in your application form.
