I am well out of the loop re accountancy salaries but does not seem that generous given:

1. London
2. The qualifications required
3. No mention of support for further qualifications/progression/professional exam fees.

Communication skills are going to have to be good if they have to contact you with no contact details provided! Stop posting anonymously if you want to be taken seriously. That's twice in 3 minutes!

The contact is obviously Rodney Trotter (what a wally!).

In all seriousness though, the OP is obviously trying to test our detective skills. Mine are very good as it happens.

Yes but isn't that the sort of detective work that got you banned last time?

I'm guessing a Google search for the first paragraph. There appears to be an identical post on the ICB site.
