Industry Sectors You Could Be Working In

So, you want to train as an accountant. The question is: where do you want to take your career? Fancy an accounting career that lets you work in the TV or film business? What about providing accountancy services to the motor industry, expatriates, hotels or universities?

The firms we recruit for service large client bases covering a wide range of industry sectors, so there are many areas in which to get involved. Most of our firms will allow you to work across a broad range of sectors, providing you with varied experience. Later in your career, you may decide to specialise in key areas. However, should you have an interest in working in a particular field, the firms we recruit for would, in most cases, encourage and support you to develop your career accordingly.

The table below outlines all the industry types that you could potentially get involved with, and those firms offering such opportunities. To find out more about a specific firm, click the firm name.
