I heard from my managers that M1 is around 7k now so it's not too bad, but looking at their hours and their scope of work, I'm very sure that it's not something I want to torture myself to work on. Plus, I feel like I'm not learning meaningful things in audit (same old procedures for the same old generic trading goods clients, no meaningful analysis to be done because deadlines and rubber stamping, just reconcile their messy workings to fill in the blanks in the latest audit workpapers) compared to when I was an associate. That's why I want to leave now that I have done one busy season as a senior.
How is technical accounting and how different is it in commercial vs public? It always sounds intimidating to me, since it feels as though you have to be some expert in IFRS17 or so.

As TA, you are right. It is knowledge demanding. Thats why we always look for technically strong ppl to join the team. In public u can consider yourself a researcher or the google.
You need to be aware of new or upcoming standards, preparing guidelines, doing training, providing guidance to different role. From jnr to partner level. Of cos u cant run away from frs, ssa, ethic codes, mas regulation such as payment service act/regulation, company acts or anything under the sun
It is indeed demanding. But still better than demanding in hours only, such as audit function.
In commercial its still quite process driven to me. It seems there is no clear line u are a fm or a ta.
All in all u are paid ~10% premium as compared to audit mgr for a reason. Thats my opinion. And yes.. this is a niche role, not many ppl likes it because u need to be better than google search. |
