Behind the Numbers: How to stop accountancy’s brain drain
Manage episode 435750025 series 2944765
In this episode of Behind the Numbers, we discuss ways to improve recruitment and retention in accountancy.
While the pipeline of new joiners remains healthy, holding onto qualified staff is proving challenging. New research by ICAEW on mid-tier firms demonstrates just how significant the issue is – with 70% of participants identifying talent as their most significant challenge. So, what needs to happen for more professionals to view accountancy as a long-term career choice?
To explore the key issues, host Philippa Lamb is joined by Kat Hearn, Senior Technical Manager at ICAEW; Androulla Soteri, Chief People Officer at Dains Accountants; and Lola Abitogun, who qualified as a chartered accountant before establishing Alchemy HR.
