Grant Thornton Australia is one of Australia’s leading professional services firms, providing audit, tax, and advisory services to a diverse range of clients.

Our culture is underpinned by a commitment to our clients, people and communities, and our promise to ‘Reach for Remarkable’ by providing proven expertise, principled execution, and personalised experience.

In Australia we’re proud to support the careers of more than 1,500 remarkable people. Backed by six Australian offices and a global network spanning more than 150 markets, we offer the scale, connections and opportunities to help you shape your future, wherever it takes you.

The opportunity

As part of Grant Thornton’s national Sustainability Reporting Advisory team, you will be at the forefront of sustainability reporting and regulatory change in Australia and globally. You will support engagements across all aspects of sustainability reporting regulations, working with organisations as they respond to rapidly evolving reporting expectations. The Sustainability Reporting Advisory team is on a strong growth trajectory, responding to increasing client demand driven by mandatory reporting requirements and heightened board‑level focus on sustainability and climate‑related risks.

We support organisations to apply sustainability reporting standards and regulatory requirements – including AASB S1 and S2, IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards and related frameworks – in a way that is practical, proportionate and aligned to business strategy and decision‑making.





Operating as a truly national team, we collaborate closely with assurance, tax and advisory specialists to deliver integrated, commercially focused sustainability reporting solutions. Our work spans the full maturity spectrum, from early‑stage readiness and education through to first‑time and ongoing reporting, helping clients embed sustainability considerations into broader business, financial and risk frameworks.

With mandatory climate‑related financial disclosures now legislated in Australia, the team plays a critical role in education, capability building and technical leadership. We support clients as they prepare to report, while also strengthening sustainability reporting capability across Grant Thornton by contributing to the technical excellence of assurance practitioners and other service lines. Through this work, the team helps close the green skills gap both externally with clients and internally across the firm.

Your role

As a Senior Associate, you will play a key role in delivering high‑quality sustainability reporting advisory engagements while continuing to build your technical depth, client‑facing confidence and commercial judgement.

You will work directly with clients under the direction of senior leaders and contribute to the broader growth and capability of the Sustainability Reporting Advisory practice.

- Draft explicit, well‑structured client deliverables, technical memoranda and internal and external publications.

- Support readiness assessments and pre‑issuance reviews of sustainability reports, focusing on quality, clarity and technical compliance.
- Assist in the development and delivery of client and internal training, workshops and capability‑building programs.
- Support proposal development and other business development activities as required.
- Support and mentor junior team members, contributing to a strong, collaborative team culture.

You will also have opportunities to build deeper expertise in specific technical areas through participation in Grant Thornton International subject‑matter focus groups (for example greenhouse gas emissions accounting, IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards or CSRD).
