- Providing support to member accountants in areas such as new legislation, technical or topical accounting updates, and providing guidance on ethical issues, provision of interesting or helpful content to the members
- Engaging with the member firms, helping them on strategic issues such as how to attract and retain staff, providing guidance on systemic issues affecting practice firms such as the changing audit landscape, the skills-shortage, and other practical advice to owner-managers or leadership groups in the profession.
As such this is a really unique role, offering someone in the profession a real contrast - No timesheets, overtime, late-hours or selling - Instead a role combining thought leadership, strategic engagement, and offering a role where you can "give back" to the profession and support the next generation of accountants.
