With over 40 years accountancy recruitment experience, the team at Austin Rose know that the lure of an industry role can be a strong one. However, as Practice Specialists, we firmly believe that for many people, a practice role is best for both job satisfaction and long term career prospects.
Working in practice, will offer you:
1) A variety of clients and sectors, offering you a wider choice of career options than remaining in one sector in industry
2) Broad technical exposure, offering a more challenging workload and the ability to maintain an up-to-date skillset with a strong focus on technical updates and CPD
3) Greater technical support, as you are surrounded by plenty of other accountants who can support the growth of your skills
4) The chance to be a profit centre. As opposed to within industry, where you are more likely to be a cost centre. In times of economic downturn, businesses endeavour to cut their costs and protect profit, making your role far safer in a practice environment during tough times.
If you’re still unsure about staying in practice, take a look at the kinds of roles we currently have available, or give us a call on 0203 225 5060 to discuss your next move.
