A new report from Morgan McKinley reveals a 17% rise in accountancy roles outside of traditional financial services
A new report from Morgan McKinley reveals a 17% rise in accountancy roles outside of traditional financial services. While hiring in banks has slowed, there’s growing demand from sectors like retail, infrastructure, ESG programmes, and manufacturing. Businesses in these areas are actively building out their finance functions to support transformation, sustainability, and post-pandemic growth.
What’s driving this? A need for accountants who understand ESG, tech adoption, and financial strategy, not just the numbers. For recruitment teams, this is a clear signal to look beyond the usual markets and focus on developing talent pipelines in commercial and industrial sectors.
If you’re still focused only on financial services, it might be time to widen the lens.
