My recommendations

Find a firm that had a good reputation as a training firm rather than a big firm such as GT or PWC. Much less pressure on exam passes and much more help.

Study at Kaplan financial. If you have a degree go for ACCA. You could do ACA but I recommend the exam structure and ACCA is a much more international qualification if you wanted to work abroad ever. ACA is the historically best one but ACCA has overtaken it now IMHO.

If no degree do AAT first then ACCA

Pay will be pretty crap to start with as the firm you work for will pay for the training and exams which cost a fortune.

Once qualified you should be aiming for ?30k in your first year though so this is a good starting salary once the hard work of all the exams is out if the way.

Can't recommend it enough! Once
Qualified you can go into any business you like and offer something!
