Benefits

Being part of Grant Thornton International offers numerous advantages, including the opportunity to work with a global and diverse team in a virtual environment. We take pride in our inclusive culture, which we consider one of our most valuable assets.

We recognize the significance of time off at Grant Thornton International. Taking breaks can enhance well-being and productivity, which is why we do not impose limits on your leave. If you require additional time off, we support that. We believe that work is not confined to a location; it is defined by what we accomplish. This philosophy enables us to deliver our best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

We aim to cultivate a culture of virtual inclusivity, allowing our employees to choose what works best for them while ensuring an optimal shared working experience through the digital tools at our disposal.

GTIL is committed to providing individuals with the necessary support and equipment to work effectively from home. We also offer collaborative spaces for those who prefer working outside their homes. Access to digital learning options and external training is available to meet role-specific development needs.

We fully understand the importance of balancing personal and professional life and strive to support this through remote working and flexibility within roles. We acknowledge that the time spent outside of work contributes to what individuals bring to their roles, and we encourage flexibility on both sides. However, for those who prefer an office environment, we offer that option as well. Additionally, we recognize the importance of a comfortable remote workspace, which is why we provide all staff with a monthly home office allowance to ensure they are well-equipped to perform their roles effectively.

These are just a few of the benefits of working at Grant Thornton International. We also offer a comprehensive range of attractive core benefits, including pension plans, health insurance, wellness programs, and much more.
