Accountancy firm Grant Thornton says its latest staff survey showed 88% of staff wanted to work remotely at least half of the time, with 94% saying having a mix of remote and office working would positively benefit them.

A Grant Thornton spokesperson said the firm would be using the survey data alongside client feedback to come up with “a new way of working that will be more sustainable” for its more than 4,500 workers.
