Part Qualified Accountant - Public Practice

Part Qualified Accountant – Accountancy Practice

Addington Ball has recently established a new business working relationship with a highly regarded regional accountancy practice. We conducted a face-to-face meeting with the clients to understand their parameters and the specifics they were looking for in a candidate.

At the part qualified, semi-senior level within practice, it is becomingly increasingly challenging for firms to find candidate due to the severe shortage, meaning a growing fap between skills and job requirements with AI and tech evolution.

We had the tools in place to be able to conduct a specific candidate profile searches via LinkedIn, reaching out and networking with local practice professionals.

After a thorough interview, both client and candidate were eager to progress, facilitating in a smooth and extremely positive outcome for both parties.
