BSc Accounting degree is a profession in transition.
The traditional skills necessary to flourish as an accountant – namely the ability to help clients minimise tax and balance the books – are slipping somewhat by the wayside thanks to the emergence of dedicated and powerful computer software. The vocation, which has in the past been resilient through decades of industrial, political and societal change, is now going through an almighty evolution.
However, with great change comes great opportunity, and the current crop of newly qualified accountants are blessed with the chance to shape the future of a sector that will, in all likelihood, play an increasingly essential role in helping businesses and individuals make their hard-earned money go further.
Accountants have often suffered from the stereotype of being stuffy introverts, but that’s by no means the label the accountants of the future will be plastered with; dynamism, energy and the ability to provide top-notch financial advice will be the attributes required by the next generation of accountants, with extroverts likely to thrive in this more hands-on, interactive and collaborative environment: offering a personal touch is going to become ever more important.
Not only will be a people person become even more necessary for accountants in the years to come but so will being adept at utilising advanced computer software, particularly that which harnesses cloud technology. Being able to work on a document that can be sent, assessed and modified by client and accountant alike in the space of a few seconds is just one reason why working with a keyboard and mouse rather than old-school pen and paper is an accounting must.
