We also have a flexible approach to bank holidays, allowing people to choose when they take their public holidays throughout the year.

While we don't consider our flexible and agile working practices and family policies as a "benefit", we view them more as a part of our culture. Many of our people believe this to be a huge benefit working at Grant Thornton.
The time you spend outside of work helps shape what you can bring to our firm. We value the commitments you may have outside of work and to demonstrate this, all of our people have an immediate right to request a flexible working arrangement under our flexible working policy.
Learn more about how we work
How we do things is just as important as what we do. We trust and empower our people and expect them to use their judgment to make intentional decisions that drive our business forwards. If you’re high performing, responsible and dedicated you’ll be treated as such, and our culture of two-way flexibility allows you to thrive inside and outside of work. We encourage our people to explore, within their teams, how they can work in an agile way which allows them to be at their best, deliver high-quality work and meet their responsibilities in and outside of work.
Our adoption (including surrogacy) and maternity leave policies are designed to provide flexibility and confidence for our parents and families
Our policies offer our people:
We understand that juggling caring commitments whilst working can be tough. Our how we work policy and flexible working policy can help you balance things, but we recognise occasionally you may need more time to care for those reliant on you. We want to support you during those times when you’re really up against it, which is why we provide up to 5 days paid carers leave per calendar year.
Our parental leave policy enables parents to take up to four weeks unpaid parental leave per year, per child. We’ve removed the statutory length of service criteria so all parents can access this policy on joining the firm. Don't confuse this with any leave taken following the arrival of a new child that would count as maternity, paternity or adoption leave.
Paternity leave enables non childbearing parents to spend some time with their new family.
Our policy offers our people:
Under shared parental leave, the mother or primary adopter can decide to share up to 50 weeks leave and 37 weeks statutory pay with their partner. Our policy also enables parents to take leave together, at the same time.
Our policy offers our people:
Our people make us who we are, and our culture enables them to thrive.
We ask a lot of our people, but we give a lot in return.
