    Hi All,

    I'm currently researching a career change into accountancy with the eventual desired role being in Finance Business Partnering, FP & A Analyst or management accounting within industry. I've 10 years of tech consulting and product management experience and a BSc in Economics.

    My question is given my background and desired future role what is the best way for me to start out/initial steps?
    Start studying ACCA or CIMA while looking for an entry level/Assistant Accountant role in industry?
    Go back to do a PGDip in Accountancy for 9 months?
    Apply for Big 4 graduate programme and study ACA?

    Thanks for all help
