CHICAGO, Aug. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The results of the 2024 national study of corporate finance & accounting (F&A) talent or human resources is now available in a published report by the Controllers Council. The research identifies F&A recruitment plans, shits in Hybrid work environments, outsourcing trends, compensation and benefits, and more.
The 2024 Corporate Finance & Accounting Talent Study was conducted in May to July of 2024 via a national survey of CFOs, Controllers, and related executives across a broad range of company sizes and industries. With the global pandemic and "Great Resignation" behind us, talent challenges persist including CPA and accountant shortages, transitioning work environments, and volatile macroeconomic environments.
Key findings include hybrid work environments decreasing from 63% in 2023 to 55% in 2024, along with reduced F&A hiring increases from 37% in 2023 to 32% in 2024. Despite growing talent shortages, multiple factors point to a modest shift to an employer's market.
"The 2024 Corporate Finance and Accounting Talent study identifies new insights into our most valuable assets, talent", states Neil Brown, Controllers Council Executive Director. "The second annual study and report is an important read for executives in all types and sizes of organizations."
