Irish Finance Pros Less Likely to Quit, ACCA Survey Finds
Dublin – Irish finance professionals demonstrate remarkable job loyalty, with a significantly lower propensity to switch companies compared to their global counterparts, according to a recent survey by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA). The findings highlight a strong commitment to current employers within the Irish finance sector.
The ACCA survey revealed that just 44% of Irish accountancy and finance professionals anticipate their next career advancement will occur with a different organisation. This figure contrasts with the broader global trend observed within the finance industry, suggesting a greater degree of stability and satisfaction among Irish professionals.
The survey didn't specify the global average or the methodology used to gather the data beyond stating that it involved accountancy and finance professionals. However, the results underscore the attractiveness of working within Ireland's financial landscape and potentially reflect factors such as a robust economy, competitive salaries, or strong employer-employee relationships.
The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) is a global professional accounting body with over 200,000 members and 500,000 students worldwide. Its surveys and reports often provide valuable insights into industry trends and workforce behaviours, shaping discussions around career development and talent management.
