Career advice needed regarding accouting systems analysis

Career advice needed regarding accouting...

Didn't find your answer?

I was wondering if anybody has any advice for me.

I am going to be changing career for a number of different reasons from software engineering into accountancy.  I will be starting my AAT Level 3 soon.  I've opted to do AAT rather than jump straight into ACCA or ACA as I want to really get to grips with the fundamentals.

In the future however, I would love to combine my experience in software and IT, with accounting and going into accounting systems analysis really appeals.  Is there anybody who works already in this area who would be able to give me advice on what direction would be good to take?  I have ten years plus experience in software design but not necessarily for financial systems.  I have some experience with Sage for example but not much.

Are there any specific languages that would be good to learn, for example C# or something like that?  Is there anything I need to specifically concentrate on?

If I sound as if I am trying to run before I can walk, I can assure you I'm not.  I'm just trying to information gather at this stage.

Thanks for any input.
