2022 so far is showing record increases in rates of pay for accountants up and down the country.
And if you’re an accountant who is umming and ahhing over whether to pursue a new job this year, we have some serious news for you.
If you’ve not received a payrise in the last six months, it’s likely that we’ll be able to find a role that will pay you up to 35% more, often for doing exactly the same job at the same level.
And if you’ve yet to take advantage of this, you’ll want to reach out to us without delay.
What’s driving this huge increase in pay for accountants?
Well this year has seen the perfect storm. There’s a skills gap in the market which means that qualified accountancy talent is hard to come by, particularly in the specialist field of audit.
Add this to the cost of living crisis and rising inflation and you find yourself in a recruitment market where candidates are in the driving seat and if they possess the skills, experience and qualifications that our clients are looking for, they are able to demand salaries way beyond their own (and often our) expectations.
So what are you waiting for?
Every household bill you pay will be rising exponentially. It’s likely that your employer has put up their fees to clients in order to cover some of their costs. But if they haven’t extended that hand of goodwill to you and proactively adjusted your salary to reflect these changes in the global market, then who is the only person losing out?
You guessed it – it’s you!
And remember, even if you love your current role, working with us to explore what else might be possible for you in your career doesn’t mean you’re jumping ship. It just means you’re doing your due diligence and making sure you have a true understanding of the options that are available to you.
It’s a complete no brainer!
This week alone we’ve begun working with some incredible clients on a retained basis. And we’re working hard to help employers to understand that in this market, they need to be scouring not just for ready-made talent, but potential new recruits that they can nurture to become the Directors and Partners of the future.
And for you this means that not only huge salary increases await, but also the potential for dedicated study support and defined pathways of progression with reputable and committed employers.
‘At Public Practice Recruitment Ltd we want to work with you from the beginning right through to the end of your career, so you can trust us to find the right solutions for you as opposed to making a quick buck from your placement and then shooting off to find the next candidate. That’s why we invest so much in building up and offering career counselling resources to help you achieve your career goals, one step at a time.’
