When people look to changing jobs a question we're often asked is, "how easy it to move into a new sector?". This particularly holds true for qualified accountants looking to move into financial services for the first time (particularly in cities such as Edinburgh and London where the FS sector enjoys a high presence). Traditionally, many employers have looked for like-for-like industry experience as an essential pre-requisite when hiring. However, we have found that this attitude has changed markedly over the past 10 years or so, as the marketplace has become far more flexible and open-minded.There is also a great willingness to look at the benefits that individuals can bring from the previous industries/sectors they worked in.
