Accountant
Accountant jobs come in a range of skill levels, from trainee right up to senior. That means that although there will always be a need for chartered accountants in the jobs market, it’s also a discipline that can be entered at a relatively low level, but always with excellent prospects for the most talented and hard-working.
For the most part, companies are looking for qualified accountants with AAT, ACCA, AIA, CIMA or ICAEW qualifications to step into accountancy departments and work under direct supervision. However, since there’s such a spectrum of accountancy qualification and experience, and a significant array of accountancy skills required to work in specific sectors, the details of the job advert will be crucial if an accountant is to slot into a given role with the relevant qualifications, experience and sectoral understanding.
Accountancy – the skills required
Accountants tend to know they want to take their chosen career paths from an early age. They are always people who love mathematics and who have an analytical mindset, and can apply these skills to getting to the bottom of any finance-related task that is set for them.
Accountant roles will also require a degree of business acumen – knowing the ins and outs of what makes industry tick (money) will stand an accountant in good stead, and it’s something that only ever improves with experience.
Accountant Jobs in Pembrokeshire
Pembrokeshire covers the south west of Wales, and contains its westernmost settlement, St David’s. It borders Ceredigion in the north east and Carmarthenshire to the east. Its north, south and west edges are all sea-facing. Large areas of the county’s coastal region are part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. The administrative headquarters is at Haverfordwest, an inland town of around 15,000 population, and Pembrokeshire’s largest.
Pembrokeshire is a county of contrast. There is plenty of natural beauty and the tourist resorts of Tenby and Saundersfoot are in the county. However it is also home to Milford Haven and Pembroke Dock shipping ports and oil terminals. As far as Accountant jobs are concerned, this blend of tourism and industry is potentially good news, and we regularly fill such vacancies here.
