Jaya’s journey is one of rediscovery and resilience. After stepping away from consulting to focus on her growing family, she returned with renewed confidence—thanks to the #CARE culture that prioritised empathy, flexibility and trust. In her own words, she shares how rejoining the workforce at Grant Thornton Bharat helped her reconnect with her passion, balance her personal commitments, and thrive in a supportive environment.
I had stepped away from full-time consulting to focus on my family, especially after the birth of my second child. When I first spoke to the Global Delivery team in early 2023, my younger child was just four months old, and the idea of returning to work felt overwhelming.
But the team’s belief in me changed everything. They offered not just a role, but a flexible, empathetic setup that allowed me to re-engage with the payments industry I love without compromising on my responsibilities at home.
I joined Grant Thornton Bharat in July 2023, and soon after, began a secondment with GTAL. The experience has been transformative. I’ve been able to contribute meaningfully, grow professionally, and still be present for my family.
It’s been a rare and rewarding balance, one that has helped me rediscover my confidence and reconnect with the work I’m passionate about.
