Accountants are doing really well right now and those looking for vacancies check the job boards weekly, mainly to see if their pay is correct in the market place and also if there are any better job opportunities.  Naturally, those employers offering higher salaries will attract the best account people, whether they are in a job or seeking.

 

The trend this year shows a growing demand for part-qualified and fully qualified accounts people whether they are doing general bookkeeping, looking after the purchase ledger or sales ledger or if they are a Financial or Management Accountant.

 

As with many industries, some accounting practices rely on their own website to find the best talent and the chances of them doing so will lead them to struggle in finding the candidate they need to fill their jobs. Finance recruitment is easy when done correctly - which means advertising your role across a wide range of job boards, instead of just on your website. 

 

We’ve also noticed an increase in the amount of recruitment for trainee and graduate accounts people in both industry and commerce as well as apprenticeship roles which are becoming popular.

 

With many easy to use account products and technologies available, companies are preparing their accounts online because the software is simpler to use.  So virtual bookkeepers could be the new IT remote workers!
