Or just become one yourself...
Pigeonholed for centuries as boring numbers men and women, the time has finally come for accountants to get the all-around recognition they deserve.
Accountancy is a profession able to unlock so many doors in life, yet only a lucky few actually hold the keys.
So wouldn't it make sense to have one of these problem-solving financial wizards by your side to aid you as you traverse the wild world of bills, budgets, and fiscal responsibility?
We think so.
That's why we’ve teamed up with Chartered Accountants Ireland, to bring you four reasons you should date a Chartered Accountant.
1. The only way is up.
If you were lucky enough to date a Chartered Accountant, you should know there’s only one way their career path tends to go... and that’s up.
Accounting has one of the best career trajectories in the finance sector, and Chartered Accountants tend to climb the ladder very quickly.
2. The sky is the limit.
Reason two you should date a Chartered Accountant... they're never likely to never be short of a few bucks.
The Leinster Society of Chartered Accountants Ireland just released their annual salary survey and Chartered Accountants are in high demand.
The report examines its members based in Leinster, the salary prospects that training and qualifying as a Chartered Accountant can open up, and why it’s such a rewarding career path.
In the report, the average salary package for a Chartered Accountant in their first-year post-qualification taking a position in the industry is €61K, while the average salary for a Chartered Accountant in Leinster is €109K... sign us up!
46% of respondents said they have been promoted in the last three years, with 99% employed… again, we like the sound of this.
3. Leadership qualities.
This brings us to number three... Leadership. It's sexy.
We all want to be leaders in our profession, whatever it is.
And in the world of finance and business, there are few workers that garner more respect than Chartered Accountants.
Leadership qualities don’t just end when you clock off for the day, these are skills for life.
And a Chartered Accountancy Qualification is the first step on your way toward gaining the skills expertise and confidence to lead across any sector or industry.
4. They're basically a global passport.
And finally, the fourth reason that you should date a Chartered Accountant, is the chance to travel our beautiful planet.
Where do you want to go, what do you want to see? The Chartered Accountancy qualification can get you there, with its global recognition, it’s your passport to the world!
Imagine waking up in the hustle and bustle of Singapore? Or landing your dream Job in London, Los Angeles or Sydney?
As an Irish Chartered Accountant, the world is your oyster!
Enticed?
Unfortunately, there’s no tinder for dating Chartered Accountants (that we’re aware of), so instead of just relying on the off chance of meeting one, perhaps it’s safer to just jump into it yourself.
And luckily there are training options available for people from all walks of life including school students, graduates, career changes, mature students, and finance professionals.
