Calling all accountants!
I'm back at work after maternity leave and while I'm happy to have a job in these times, it is slowly killing me. I've only been back a few weeks and I've already cried about having to do my job several times so I'm making the change once and for all.
I've been struggling to think of what area to get in to, and I'm now seriously considering accounting. I'm not keen on getting lots of study debt as I already have 3 degrees (one BSc and 2 MSc) in psychology so have plenty of debt thank you!
What I'm struggling with though is where to start! Accountancy seems to vast and the career options are so many which is really promising but I have no experience in the field. Can anyone help? I'm currently in an admin position in health research, have experience of mental health, research, admin but not maths.. I got an A in maths at A levels and that's the last time I used maths except for statistics in my courses and when doing research.
I'm very ambitious and would love to progress in a company and money does motivate me if I'm absolutely frank which is another reason why I left psychology. Would love anyone's input, how did you start, what's your current role and do you enjoy it?
