Accounting technicians

Accounting technicians work at all levels of finance from accounts clerks to financial controllers. They work in all industries and sectors and in organisations large and small.

In a small organisation, accounting technicians may be the only trained finance staff employed. In a large company, they are a crucial part of a balanced team working alongside chartered accountants and administrative staff.

Some AAT full members provide accounting services on a self-employed basis. Fully regulated, they provide a cost-effective accountancy and taxation service, particularly to small and medium sized enterprises.
