WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE ACCOUNTANCY PRACTICE MARKET


We have seen an increased need for Practice Accountant positions across the public practice market which is affecting the UK nationally.


In addition, because there is a shortage of supply and high demand, the knock-on effect pushes salaries up making the practice market as competitive as the industry market.
