All about audit

As a member of the Audit team, you’ll have the real opportunity to work with diverse clients, from startups to SMEs to global multinationals, operating in various industries across Ireland, the UK and the US. You’ll be exposed to clients working in pharmaceuticals, fintech, banking, hospitality, asset management and more, and you’ll have the opportunity to work with subject-matter experts from across Grant Thornton’s international network.
With our hands-on approach to providing Audit services, you’ll gain a close-up view of business operations while engaging with cutting-edge technologies and experiencing how our team makes a tangible different to our clients’ businesses.
I joined the Audit team at Grant Thornton in autumn 2021, after graduating in Business and Management from TU Dublin as a mature student. From the beginning, the experience has been rewarding.
The team is diverse, and no two days or clients are the same. Over the past year, I’ve worked with clients across motor, pharma, logistics and healthcare, gaining invaluable exposure and experience.
My day starts with coffee or tea at the Dockers in GTHQ, catching up with colleagues and setting a positive tone. I then respond to emails, prioritise tasks, prepare for meetings and carry out audit work.
Support is always available—whether from fellow trainees, managers, directors or partners. The open-plan office encourages collaboration and makes it easy to seek help.
At Grant Thornton, I’m trusted with responsibilities and encouraged by seniors and managers who believe in my professionalism and competence. I have the knowledge and support to deliver excellent results. The culture is uplifting and collaborative, and I feel empowered to grow.
After a year here, I can confidently say that a career in audit at Grant Thornton is also fun. The people make all the difference. Social events help us connect, enjoy ourselves and build relationships across the firm. I’m excited about what lies ahead.
