Career ready

Many students on this course will be considering a career as a professional accountant, whether as a chartered accountant or a management accountant.

Career destinations

A chartered accountant will typically work for many different clients, while a management accountant is employed by just one organisation and has a say in the running of that organisation.

Placements are an excellent opportunity to put your learning into practice and understand the context for your new knowledge. The contacts made during placements can also be valuable for future job offers.
