Hollywood Accountants
Roll out the Red Carpet: the accounting shortage hits Hollywood 📽 🤩
Working as an accountant on movie productions sounds pretty frickin' awesome! Here's an excerpt of a recent Yahoo entertainment article:
🎬 “Accounting jobs in Hollywood are not just for numbers nerds. They can provide some of the glamor enjoyed by producers, directors and actors. When they go on location, all of their expenses are paid for”
The article goes on to discuss the shortage of talent and the demand for production accountants driven by recent retirements.
🎬 “About 25% of production accountants have retired, while production demand has increased by about that same amount, creating a “significant gap.”
—--------------------------------------------
🤯 The impact that retirements had on the demand for production accountants is fascinating.
In the overall accounting profession, 70% of accountants are currently at retirement age.
If you're a younger accountant, all signs point to a flood of cool opportunities coming your way for the years to come.
