:: Accounting & Finance |
Excerpted from the Australia Career Guide
A recent survey from the Hudson
recruiting company found a positive employment outlook in financial
services/insurance industries. This growth placed the sector sixth
among the sixteen industries being surveyed, behind professional
services, IT, construction/engineering, telecommunications and
resources. Likewise a recent Manpower survey found positive hiring
intentions in the finance/real estate/insurance sector, with 17
percent of employers interviewed indicating new hires.
Growth in accounting jobs was driven by increased demand in the
compliance and governance areas, especially new reporting
requirements in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS), changes in budgetary reporting guidelines of
Australia’s Department of Finance and Administration, and new
reporting requirements dictated by Sarbanes-Oxley legislation, which
created extra demand for contract/temporary staff.
This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete Australia
guide.
