Houston Accounting Professionals Job Outlook

This is an excellent time for Houston accounting professionals in search of challenging, new opportunities. While some industries and functions have experienced a decline in the recent economic downturn, the demand for accounting professionals is strong and predicted to continue to increase well into 2014. CFO’s, controllers, accountants, AP managers, payroll managers, and bookkeepers are all in high demand.

This increase in demand means that accounting professionals can generally enjoy better work environments, salaries, and opportunities for career advancement. According to the Occupational Outlook Handbook, the median annual wage for bookkeeping, accounting and auditing clerks was $34,030 in 2010, with job growth of 14% expected by 2020. The median annual salary for accountants and auditors was $61,690, with job growth of 16% expected by 2020.

According to Yahoo! Education, financial analysts and financial advisors can expect a 38.8% increase in available jobs in the next few years. As older generations begin retiring, this will open up new opportunities in many different organizations across multiple industries. New financial regulations and an increase in financial management processes within corporations are also driving demand.
