Looking forward

The job market for experienced accounting and finance professionals has tightened dramatically. Despite relatively high levels of general unemployment, companies are finding fewer candidates with the skills and experience needed to deliver growth strategies. Many of the most in-demand professionals are again receiving multiple offers and counteroffers in what can aptly be called a ‘war for talent’.

Offering competitive compensation is therefore vital for both attracting top talent to your organisation and encouraging your best people to stay. And periodically benchmarking your salaries is key to making sure you remain on the mark. Many UK institutions continue to face limitations to cash flow and investment financing, so having up-to-date information on compensation can make a big difference to a company’s performance.

To help our clients with this, Robert Half publishes an annual salary guide for accounting and finance. It gives you the latest information on starting salaries, hiring, retention and workplace trends.

I hope you find the guide helpful as you continue building a finance team capable of meeting your most important business strategies. For additional compensation and recruitment insights, visit our salary centre at roberthalf.co.uk/salary-guide.

Understanding the 2014 Salary Guide

The Robert Half 2014 Salary Guide is the most comprehensive and authoritative resource on starting salaries and recruitment trends in the accountancy and finance fields.

The guide includes salary ranges for 40 permanent positions. You’ll also find guidance and best practices that you can immediately include in your hiring efforts.

The figures are based on the thousands of permanent and interim placements made each year by our recruitment consultants. They work with hiring managers and candidates, and this gives them unique insights into compensation trends.

The salary range listed for each position reflects starting pay only. Bonuses and other forms of reward, such as pension scheme and long-term incentive plans, are not taken into account. The ranges represent UK averages. You can adjust them for your market by using the local variances found immediately after the salary tables.

We collect information from various sources, including:

Temporary, interim and permanent placements made through our branch locations

Insight from our senior recruitment managers

Independent research we conduct among UK senior executives

Information from the Office for National Statistics and HM Revenue & Customs

Our comprehensive analysis of current and future hiring trends

While pay for existing employees is affected by tenure, experience and increased responsibility and is therefore not reflected in the salary ranges, we offer insights on salary and bonus expectations on page 16, based on our research of CFOs and FDs.

We recognise that salary ranges may vary by industry and are influenced by other factors such as hard-to-find skill sets. Please speak with one of our Robert Half consultants to find out specific factors affecting your sector.

The hiring climate

Permanent hiring for accounting and finance professionals has increased, and many organisations are looking to expand their teams.

But while additional recruitment budget is available, hiring managers struggle to source and recruit the talent they need. Indeed, a recent survey showed that nearly nine in 10 (87%) UK finance leaders are challenged in finding skilled financial professionals. Companies that delay hiring in search of the ‘perfect match’ or that subject candidates to lengthy rounds of approval may find their top choices accepting offers from competing organisations.

A long-expected upturn in retirements are also likely to have an effect on hiring patterns as firms look to replace these experienced workers. Companies will need to prepare now for upcoming retirements, stepping up succession-planning efforts or offering a more gradual path to retirement for employees who desire one, including part-time or contract work.

Trends affecting hiring

Many small and mid-sized firms are managing the transition to FRS 102, which will replace the current UK GAAP from 1 January 2015. The brevity of FRS 102 compared with IFRS has been welcomed by many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), although others are still finding they need to turn to temporary and interim workers to manage heavy workloads as well as access skills not available in-house.

Pensions auto enrolment is another issue facing UK businesses, and many anticipate increasing headcount tomanage the operational implications of the new regulation.

As companies again turn their attention to growth, so too must the role of the finance professional continue to evolve. The past few years found finance leaders focused on headcount reductions, having to do more with less. Business growth and new product and service expansion now require commercial accountants with strong business acumen and communication skills to deliver augmentation strategies.

Retention worries reappear

Concerns about morale and retention are rising. Employees may feel modest salary gains in recent years have not kept pace with the increased value of their contributions. In addition, as workloads have expanded, many workers are expressing the desire for a better work–life balance. These factors are leading them to seek new employment opportunities, tempting them to test the strength of the recovering job market and the going rate for their skill sets. Voluntary turnover, where employees choose to leave the business, is on the rise, and some of those who are changing jobs are receiving sizable salary increases.

To attract and retain top performers, employers need to not only offer prospective hires competitive remuneration and other benefits but also to present them with defined career paths within the organisation.

Following several years of hiring freezes and reductions, some employers are finding that they cannot keep hiring to keep pace with rising workloads. They are seeking skilled senior and management accounting roles to help maintain productivity, control costs and expand their core teams as they focus on key growth targets. Key to their plans are qualified and part qualified accountants with effective analytical skills. And financial, business and business systems analysts are also all in strong demand because firms seek to upgrade and expand many aspects of their operations. Improving growth prospects and cash-rich balance sheets are propelling many companies forward.

The changing regulatory environment and further adoption of integrated governance, risk and compliance programmes has furthered demand for risk, compliance and regulatory professionals, while the shortage of skilled tax and audit professionals continues to spur demand in these areas.

Positions in demand

PermanentCommercial/financial analysts – companies are looking for experienced analysts who can guide expansion plans by delving into data to identify trends and opportunities as well as model various scenarios.

Risk and compliance professionals – growing compliance and regulatory pressures are likely to keep demand high for professionals with risk and compliance-related backgrounds, including AML requirements and privacy/disclosure requirements.

Management accountants – companies relying on financial information to direct business strategy are seeking management accountants with strong business acumen and communication skills.

Financial business partners – companies are looking for finance professionals with effective commercial, interpersonal and analytical skills to partner with various departments, including operations, sales, marketing and HR, to improve efficiencies and offer bottom-line savings.

Cost accountants – the decline in manufacturing has resulted in a shortage of costing skills. As the industry gains momentum, demand exists for those who can identify and advise on cost efficiencies and capabilities to plan for future business strategy.

Temporary/interimSystems implementation specialists – many companies are investing heavily in their systems and need interim financial professionals skilled in implementing and managing large ERP software packages.

Mergers and acquisitions specialists – increased M&A activity coupled with private equity and venture capitalist buyouts mean that senior finance professionals with proven analytical and problem-solving abilities, together with exposure to major transformational activity, are in increasing demand to support both integration and decentralisation activities.

Accounts payable/receivable clerks – as cash flow remains a primary concern, organisations are bringing in temporary professionals with a year or more experience to make sure accounts departments run effectively.

Assistant accountants – as companies create additional roles and promote staff to positions of greater seniority, assistant accountants are required on a temporary basis to help manage workloads, particularly during month-end.

A “permanent” temporary solution

Many finance departments are struggling to find the time to complete work and projects and are increasingly being called on to manage new regulations and reporting standards as well as commercial and business strategy. Despite the upswing in permanent hiring, many organisations are opting to use temporary or interim professionals to manage these initiatives.

As a result, temporary and interim recruitment is on the rise, with one in three (31%) finance leaders noting an increase over the past three years. Fixed-term contracts and temporary-to-permanent arrangements are helping companies bring in the necessary resource with little risk or no risk while they await longer term economic confidence.

Companies are employing temporary and interim finance and accounting professionals to cover a variety of functions, from general operational accountancy to risk management, compliance and commercial finance.

Follow the steps below to calculate the approximate salary range for a specific position in your area:

Example: Financial Controller at a large company in Yorkshire

Find the position and national salary range for a Financial Controller at an large company on page 11. The salary range is £55,000 - £83,250.

Find your region’s index number on the right. The index number for Yorkshire is 91.9%.

Multiply the low end of the national salary range by the index number as a percentage: £55,000 x 91.9% = £50,545.

Repeat using the high end of the salary range: £83,250 x 91.9% = £76,507.

The approximate starting salary range for a Financial Controller at a large company in Yorkshire is £50,545 to £76,507.

Customising salaries for local markets

The UK national salary ranges can be customised for each of the 11 regions with the local variances listed below. The index figures are a guide to determine average starting salaries. Factors such as company size, employee benefits, candidate skill sets and current market trends may affect actual starting salaries.

The information is supported by data from the Office for National Statistics, HM Revenue & Customs, our local recruitment consultants, research of UK CFOs and placements cross our UK branch network. The average salary index for all UK markets is 100.

Pay for existing employeesThe salary ranges on pages 11–14 represent annual starting salaries for new employees, but what about awarding pay rises to tenured staff? Many companies continue to be challenged with recognising the efforts of their employees with balancing cash flow issues, making it difficult to award annual increases. Four in 10 (41%) finance leaders will be increasing base salary levels and one in five (20%) will be increasing bonuses, while half will maintain current bonus offerings. Most public sector employees, often plagued with salary freezes over the past few years, will see increases in base salary because 55% of finance leaders within these organisations plan to raise base pay.

Other perksCompanies looking to attract the market’s most sought-after professionals are realising that pay is only one factor affecting candidates’ decisions. As employees aim to balance work and life commitments, offering a comprehensive benefits package, often flexible and tailored to each employee’s preferences, is helping companies position themselves as great places to work.

Many SMEs without the brand name recognition of their larger peers are finding that offering competitive benefits packages, plus the exposure to more projects and areas of the business are strong attractants for talent. It can also help keep your best people on board. While some firms are challenged in managing the cost, the disparity between benefits packages offered at SMEs and large companies is narrowing.

Pay for temporary/interim professionals Companies are also looking to invest in their temporary and interim professionals, increasing hourly wages and/or daily rates to secure the right talent to manage important initiatives. One in four employers (26%) will be increasing pay for these professionals, rising to 36% of large companies.
