Dear Sir,
Hope you are fine.
I know it’s out of the subject, but I really need some advises concerning my career.
I have my ACCA level 1 and Level 2 is still in progress.
Recently I have got a job in HR as a payroll officer.
Do you advise me to carry on my ACCA while pursuing a career in HR.?
Hope you can advise me.
Thanks
January 6, 2016 at 1:26 pm #293580Surely thats your call? what do you want to do as a career? ACCA is generally undertaken by those wishing to work in Accounting and Finance in some capacity, the HR world offers their own qualifications to support those that wish to pursue a career in HR
It does sound a little odd that you are studying ACCA whilst working in HR, but payroll is often a finance function too in some places
January 6, 2016 at 2:23 pm #293586I work in finance, I do the payroll as payroll is directly linked to finance and payroll issues such as HMRC taxes are good to improve your taxation skills as can understand IT, NICs employee and employer.
Speak to your line manager to support you to concentrate of the finance side of the payroll.
In management accounts staff costs is linked directly to departments and budgetholders.
You meet with your finance team for example to discuss budget implications of overtimeI hope that helps
