Who We Are
At Grant Thornton we’re building something bold. We’re doing things differently - looking to the future, driving ambitious growth and pioneering positive change in our industry. Providing audit, tax and advisory services, we empower clients through strategic insight, curiosity, and genuine partnership. And we empower our people with real opportunity. Our journey from great to exceptional is well underway. With significant investment behind us and a clear strategy for growth, there’s real momentum.
Our Agile Talent Community (ATC) brings together experienced contract professionals who want choice without losing connection. You work where you add the most value, alongside teams who treat you as a partner rather than a placeholder.
Assignment Description:
Joining us in Actuarial
We help our clients manage financial risk, comply with regulations, and make informed business decisions. The world around us is changing and our teams help clients remain agile and adapt to these changes and stay ahead of the competition.
Grant Thornton’s Actuarial team provides a wide range of services tailored to insurers, pension schemes, lending institutions, and corporates. Our work spans both business as usual support and strategic, event driven consulting, with a strong focus on regulatory compliance, risk management, and financial transformation.
If you’re an experienced Interim Life Actuarial Consultant who’s tired of choosing between freedom and meaningful work, there’s another route. Within our Actuarial team, you’ll be given the opportunity to take on short- to medium-term projects that sharpen your expertise, stretch your thinking, and give you a different angle on familiar challenges - all without locking you into a single path.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
