Thinking Of A Career Change

Recommended Posts

Currently I'm working in accounts, I have one accounting qualification (aat) but if im honest the work bores me and has for a long while. Never really enjoyed my job and the problem with that is lack of job satisfaction and drive.

Been thinking about trying to get into a sales role, ie field sales or account executive route. The basic is around what I currently earn but theres the bonus of on target earnings and these pushing me on and driving me

Is anyone in a similar role?

I think there are plenty of people in a similar position as you - just not happy at work !

However, you're in a good position to make a change and try something else. You're not married, no dependants/mortgage etc that need consideration. If you can try something you think will offer more then surely you should go for it, or not and regret it 10 years later !

Hou, any pointers for my Drafting Financial Statements exam tomorrow?!

Must say i've had similar thoughts about trying a different route.

Unfortunatley i've got my mortgage and kids to think about!

if you can try something else for the same cash go for it!!

You've always got accounts to fall back on.
