  • Different organizations have different bookkeeping systems, invoicing methods and accounting practices, so some amount of training and adjustment to a new organization will always be necessary. Therefore, it’s more important that a prospective Account Officer demonstrates good organizational skills, communication skills and attention to detail.
  • Organizations often prefer applicants with relevant experience, however, and many candidates acquire this in similar jobs, such as in a business or financial position like a Financial Analyst, Accountant or Loan Officer.
  • Though post secondary education isn’t always necessary to become an Account Officer, it does help distinguish candidates who apply for the job. Some employers prefer applicants who have earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting, Finance or Business Management, while others may hire candidates with less education for entry-level positions.
  • Many organizations at least look for candidates who have taken some accounting and bookkeeping classes, such as analysis and reporting of financial data, payroll accounting, accounting theories and tax preparation, among others.
