Flexible working arrangements have become increasingly popular in various fields, including management accounting. These arrangements provide employees with the opportunity to balance their work and personal lives more effectively, and can include options such as hybrid remote work, job sharing, part-time schedules, and flexible hours.

According to the Fair Work Act 2009, based on circumstance, certain employees have the legal right to request flexible working arrangements from their employer, including those who are parents, carers, individuals with disabilities, or employees aged 55 or older.

As a manager in the management accounting field, it is essential to be aware of the rules and legal obligations surrounding flexible working arrangements. While it ultimately depends on the organisation and specific role, it is possible to find a full-time role with flexible work arrangements, such as a hybrid remote position or a fixed-term contract with an immediate start.

Developing a new skill set is an essential aspect of professional development, and this can be achieved through continuous learning and training. For instance, mastering financial reporting will enhance your expertise, making you an especially valuable asset to the company you work at.

Keep in mind that your career aspirations should align with your job role and the company"s objectives. As you demonstrate your skills and commitment to the company, you can progress from an assistant accountant position to more senior roles, such as a financial analyst or even a financial controller.
