Panerex77 1st Gear February 26, 2012 Share February 26, 2012 currently have abt 10yrs accounting and internal controls experience; possess Accounting degree and spent 4 yrs in Big4. Thinking of making a career switch to a Compliance Managerial position in the financial industry but have no experience in the financial industry. Hence I reckon it will not be easy for me since i do not have qualifying experience and educational background. Do you know of any external courses (maybe duration 1-yr which allows me to attend courses in weekends; as weekdays need to work OT late) that i can take to obtain the relevant educational requirements? And would anyone know what's the typical salary of a Compliance Manager in the financial industry? thanks for the advice in advance ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chongster 6th Gear February 26, 2012 Share February 26, 2012 the experience looks ok to me, i don't think there is any course out there exactly relevant. knowledge of law, regulations is more a matter of experience. salary depends, but should be around 15k per month Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If already got experience can be too costly to hire you. Otherwise others can come proaching often. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in building management, HR, legal dont need to have financial exp but as long as your resume has got the exp esp in a big 4 and can think smartly and quick then it ok On the job learning mostly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
