As the world is evolving, the way we work has changed with it. Now more than ever the need to be agile, open and collaborative is essential to business success. Traditional, full time roles are no longer always the right fit for everyone. We need more ways to work together.

The Agile Talent Community is a network of contract professionals given the opportunity to work with valued clients on a project-by-project basis and provided a range of support and development opportunities offered by Grant Thornton. You’ll get the freedom to work in a way that suits you, choosing the projects you take on, allowing you the independence to manage your time effectively. The Agile Talent Community will reflect the same values that sit at the heart of Grant Thornton: a commitment to diversity and inclusion, a client centric, quality driven ethos and a fundamental care for our people and doing what’s right, ahead of what’s easy.
