Career Opportunities

Looking for a career with great job security and a variety of exciting roles at your feet? You’ve come to the right place! Your accounting studies will leave you with skills that are applicable to heaps of different roles across various industries.

Key opportunities include:

An accounting career is a great profession often involving different types of work depending on the job role, company, and industry.  Accounting can broadly be broken up into two key areas;

Management Accounting: involves completing tasks and producing reports that inform company management about financial decisions relating to the operations of the business. These decisions that management accountants help to define, are generally forward looking. For example, a management accountant might provide the information to a department head or CEO about the financial issues and consequences of undertaking a strategy.

Financial Accounting: involves completing tasks and producing reports based on historical information. These reports provide management and external stakeholders including banks, financiers, shareholders or government agencies with an important snapshot of the company’s current financial status. A financial accountant will help the CEO, head of a department, or board of a company to understand what financial issues and opportunities exist at any given time.

Pathways

The Advanced Diploma of Accounting is a great way to prepare for the level of study and academic rigour of a university level course. Before you enrol with Monarch Institute, you will need to check with the university you’re thinking of applying to about whether they’ll give you credit for the units you complete with us.

How does it work?

This course has been developed to give you absolute flexibility. Study on your couch, on public transport, on your break at work, out in the park – wherever and whenever you like. The best part is, with Monarch Institute, ‘online’ doesn’t mean ‘alone’. You’ll be backed by our trainers at every step along the way.

What support will I get?

Your trainer will be happy to contact you via phone, Zoom or email (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5.30pm). So you definitely won’t feel alone. You’ll also have access to our student Facebook groups, so you can discuss the material with other students. It’s a handy way to stay in touch with trainers and others in the same course.

Do you offer corporate workshops?

Yes. We’re the corporate training partner of choice for several large organisations. Our trainers can also conduct onsite training for groups of six staff or more. Corporate workshops can be scheduled for any location in Australia. Got a new satellite office with staff in need of training? Running a training retreat in an idyllic location (yes please!)? Our trainers can be there.

Corporate workshops are tailored to your organisation’s needs. Get in touch with our friendly course consultants for more information.

My three daughters get me up each day! When I’m not busy working, you’ll find me curled up reading a book.

 "Leadership is unlocking people's potential to become better."
- Bill Bradley

I’m Suk, hailing from regional Victoria. I moved to Melbourne in 2012 for work and study, then returned to regional Victoria in 2016 where I met Kahn. In 2020, I had triplets! Now back in Melbourne, I adore dogs, houseplants, and a good cup of coffee or tea with biscuits (am I 95 years old?). I’m a die-hard sports fan, especially for NFL, MLB, and F1. I once did a 99-hour round trip from Melbourne to Fiji to LA to Baltimore to Las Vegas and back, just to watch one NFL game – and my team lost!

What makes me jump out of bed in the morning?

My three kids and my love for accounting and teaching!
