Grant Thornton 2020 Graduate/Undergraduate Opportunities (Private Advisory and Restructuring Advisory)

Current opportunities – Private Advisory and Restructuring Advisory

We are currently looking for driven and ambitious graduates or undergraduate students to join our Cairns Private Advisory and Restructuring Advisory teams, commencing in early 2020 (start date flexible). 

These opportunities are open to:

• Final year students or those who have completed an undergraduate or postgraduate degree within the last 2 years; or
• Undergraduate students who are looking to kick-start their career whilst finishing their studies (min. 3 days per week required)

Private Advisory
Our Private Advisory team helps its private clients make the right decisions for their business, their family and for themselves with advice that is holistic, practical and commercial.  We work with mid-size businesses and family groups to manage the complexity of their taxation and financial reporting, and then look forward to the big picture – growing their business, growing their wealth and planning for their future via succession or business sale.

Restructuring Advisory
Our Restructuring Advisory specialists design innovative and commercial solutions for businesses in a range of industries. We work with owners, managers and lenders, to create reorganisation plans that include financial and strategic analysis and managerial assessments to move struggling businesses towards a more successful future, particularly in the areas of:

• Insolvency and corporate turnaround
• Administration and receivership
• Bankruptcy
