Annual CIMA report shows positive outlook from management accountants

Despite turbulent times, the recent Chartered Institute of Management Accountants salary survey shows a profession relatively optimistic about their future. According to the report available from CIMA Global, which surveyed their members in the UK and throughout the world, ‘almost half (45%) of UK members are expecting an increase in personal salary in the next 12 months and 63% are considering alternative job opportunities in the next two years.”
In his executive summary, Chief Executive, Charles Tilley, noted that “the global CIMA community has shown notable resilience to the on-going turbulence in the global economy.” Despite positive salary levels and career expectations, many areas did also report an increase in working hours. As a final point, UK members were asked to describe management accounting in one word to which the top replies were ‘challenging, varied, strategic and interesting’.
