Accountancy jobs on the increase?
What rubbish! I have been getting e-mails from several job sites as well as visits to the job centre and the only job I have had an interview for is an 8 hours a week bookkeeping job at a cheap hourly rate and it turned out that that included doing three lots of incorporated accounts, corporation tax, VAT, Bookkeeping and Payroll year-end all at £8 per hour to save on accountancy fees in excess of £8,000! Even qualified accountants are now better off claiming benefits! What a total utter shambles this country is in, does anyone agree?
I agree, total nonsense
I know numerous qualified accountants/CIOT who are begging me for work I can't give them. I know of two others who retired early because they knew there was no hope. I know of one CIPFA who was made redundant who is to move abroad. I know of many accountants technicians/clerks who have moved into other careers…they gave up hope…especially with the next recession/depression.
You have to take anything written by Employment Agencies with a pinch of salt. I think they usually come out with this sort of nonsense to attract candidates who will register with them in order to key into these "fantastic opportunities" which if they do exist will only materialise for a few people in London.
