I’ve been working as an accountant for 20 years. Lately, I’ve lost interest, there’s no growth and I don’t feel motivated anymore. How can I reenter the job market? What field should I look into to find a more interesting job?
Thanks

  • How about extending what you and offering more services to your clients? Can I share a few ideas with you and show you how help your clients save... money? If I can show you a way to help your clients and increase your income, is there any reason why you wouldn’t be open to hearing about it?  more

  • It’s so powerful that you’re being honest about where you are — that’s the first step toward real change. 🙌🏽

    After 20 years in accounting, you’ve... built an incredible foundation of analytical, organizational, and financial skills that are highly transferable. You might find renewed excitement by pivoting into areas like:

    💼 Financial consulting or business strategy– helping small businesses grow.
    📊 Data analysis or financial technology (FinTech)– blending numbers with innovation.
    🧑🏽‍🏫 Education or training – teaching bookkeeping, QuickBooks, or business finance.
    🚀 Entrepreneurship or fractional CFO services– using your expertise on your own terms.

    To reenter the market, start by updating your résumé and LinkedIn to reflect results and impact, not just responsibilities. Then, network intentionally — online and offline — and consider short certifications (AI, data analytics, or project management) to refresh your skill set.

    You’ve already proven you can master complex systems — now it’s just about finding the next chapter that excites you again. ✨
