Where a accounting analyst can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a accounting analyst already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Accounting analysts evaluate the financial statements of clients, usually companies, which include the income sheet, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and additional notes to other financial statements. They interpret and implement new accounting systems and accounting procedures and will analyse and determine if the proposed systems conform to accounting regulations and meet user information requirements.

Note

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a accounting analyst already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
