Career Opportunities
A degree in Finance and Accounting Management will provide you with the specialist knowledge required for a managerial role in the global investment advisory industry. Your enhanced understanding and insight could lead to a position in finance in roles such as chief financial officer (CFO), treasurer or financial treasurer. In accounting, you may head into roles such as chief treasurer or controller in a multinational corporation, auditing or consulting firm.
Risk Manager
There are always certain risks associated with major business decisions. Your job as a risk manager is to analyse these risks. For example, if you work in a bank, you will assess credit risks before making a loan decision. For mergers and acquisitions, you will examine whether they will lead to the desired outcomes. And if a company wants to launch a new product, you will carry out a detailed analysis of the competition and financial risks. Your goal is to identify and evaluate potential risks and to develop scenarios to avoid them.
Financial Controller
As a controller, you are responsible for measuring the profitability of the entire company using KPI systems. You need to recognise risks, weaknesses and potential for improvement in the company, and also identify opportunities to develop and evaluate solution concepts. You’ll often work closely with specialist departments and will take on a leading role in implementing change, recording progress and evaluating success – proposing adaptation measures as necessary.
Compliance Officer
As a compliance officer, you will have a controlling and supervisory function within a company. You are responsible for developing an organisational structure in which employees can comply with legal regulations. You will introduce control mechanisms that can be used to detect violations of these regulations. You will also inform employees about legal requirements and provide training in this area.
