Last year I completed a work placement with a large accountancy firm and on completion I was offered a training contract for when I graduate in the audit department. The contract is 3.5 years long 25k and ACA exams will be covered. I know this is a great opportunity with great outcomes if the contract is completed successfully, but during my time in the company, I couldn't wait to leave. I find accounting comes naturally to me but bores the life out of me at the same time. I have also recently been offered a business development/ sales role in a fin-tech company, 32k base and 47k OTE uncapped. This role excites me and I feel a lot more suited to it. Should I just suck it up and do 3.5 years in the accounting firm or go the sales route? Id appreciate any feedback, Thanks!
