Accounting Principals Identifies Top 10 Cities for Finance Jobs

Accounting Principals Identifies Top 10 Cities for Finance Jobs »

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., March 27, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — With signs that the U.S. economy continues to recover, demonstrated by monthly net job gains of more than 200,000 for the past three consecutive months, some areas of the economy are seeing a more positive uptick in hiring than others. The finance field, in particular, is among the industries gaining momentum. Since January 2011, jobs in the accounting field have grown fairly consistently, with just over 90,000 jobs being added. In response to this trend, Accounting Principals, a leading accounting and finance staffing provider, has identified the top 10 cities to find a job in finance, with Houston taking the number one spot.

Accounting Principals developed the list based on internal data from its branches around the country, taking into account the volume of job openings in the past six months as well as a general assessment of the overall economic environment in each market.

Houston topped this year’s list because of the large concentration of Fortune 500 companies, across a diverse set of industries that are headquartered in the city. Houston is also home to many energy and technology companies – industries that are poised for growth and in need of back office accounting and finance talent to keep their operations running smoothly. Among the jobs most in demand in Houston are senior accountants, internal auditors, and vendor auditors.

Another new addition to this year’s list is New York, perhaps not a surprise as it is considered the financial capital of the world. However, what is unexpected is that the majority of opportunities for finance professionals in New York are not coming from the finance sector, but rather non-profit, media/advertising, and retail. Jobs in demand in the city include staff accountants, tax accountants, and external reporting (SEC) professionals.

“As the economy improves we’ll see more cities follow New York’s lead, with finance jobs becoming increasingly available in nonfinancial firms,” said Jodi Chavez, senior vice president, Accounting Principals. “Accounting and finance is an essential function to operate and grow every business. As markets improve, finance professionals will be needed to advise business leaders on where and when to expand.”

San Francisco and Chicago continue to offer career opportunities in the accounting and finance field, appearing for the second consecutive year on Accounting Principals’ list of cities to find a finance job. Both cities’ status as a hotbed for startups and small to medium sized businesses create a demand for talent across the board, especially in the financial services sector. Senior accountants, corporate controllers, and CPAs are among the in-demand jobs.

The full list of the Top 10 Cities to Find a Finance Job is below:

Houston

Richmond, Va.

New York

San Francisco

Atlanta

Dallas

Tulsa, Okla.

Overland Park/Kansas City, Kan.

Raleigh, N.C.

Chicago

“These cities represent some of the best opportunities for candidates in the finance field. It is yet another sign that employers are increasingly confident in their own business and the economy, and are looking for qualified professionals to help them grow their business,” said Chavez. “As entry level accounting and finance professionals enter the field this May, these cities are great places to consider during their job search.”

Velos Introduces Velos Volunteer – Compliant, Ethical and Efficient Subject Recruitment

Velos Introduces Velos Volunteer – Compliant, Ethical and Efficient Subject Recruitment »

FREMONT, Calif., March 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Velos, Inc., the trusted leader in clinical research software, will introduce its Velos Volunteer web application at the American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) 2012 Summit on Clinical Research Informatics in San Francisco, California on March 21 to 24. Velos Volunteer helps organizations enlist and manage future participants in clinical trials through a process-oriented, ethical, and compliant methodology.

“We are pleased to release Velos Volunteer to improve compliance and efficiency in the recruitment process for clinical trials and to support meaningful use of data from medical records,” said John McIlwain, President of Velos.

Currently, most researchers, coordinators, and nurses maintain respondent contact information on paper, spreadsheets, and sundry databases. This inefficient process is often not fully compliant with existing rules and best practices for recruitment in clinical trials. For example, it is necessary to select volunteers fairly on a first-come, first-serve basis and eliminate bias. There is also an acute need for research sites to present recruitment capabilities and strategies to industry sponsors as well as evidence-based data measuring recruitment success and failure. Velos Volunteer provides metrics for enrollment and screening reporting to address these needs that are often otherwise not readily available. Ethical and compliant recruitment is also a great way to achieve meaningful use of medical records if supported by the proper systems.

“Velos Volunteer provides us with a sponsor-friendly recruitment dataset and uniform, audit-ready workflow throughout our entire recruiting process. We can load electronically large numbers of patients we identify as possible enrollment candidates from our clinical data repository and manage them through the same process,” said Julie Eckstrand, Assistant Director – Clinical Support Services and Quality Management.

Velos Volunteer remedies these problems through a secure system that complies with institutional security, IRB and HIPAA requirements. The database and consent for storage of PHI is an IRB-approved protocol itself that is not limited to a specific study. System features include call tracking, script management, inclusion/exclusion criteria and response management, blacklisting, and messaging. The system also provides a platform to inform respondents of the risks and benefits on a one-on-one basis which facilitates adherence to good clinical practice. The system also incorporates intuitive workflow-based design to navigate based on the direction of conversation with respondents. In addition to addressing compliance and meaningful use needs, Velos Volunteer works the way recruiters work and reduces time spent performing redundant tasks.

Although ResumUP has launched only its beta version to date, pioneer companies have seen the opportunity and are trying the approach out. Among the major firms taking part so far are Facebook, Adidas, Yandex and Ostrovok.ru.

Harvey Nash Launches NashTech, the new Brand for its UK Offshore Software and BPO Business »

LONDON, March 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Harvey Nash Group, the leading specialist IT recruitment & outsourcing group, today announced that its UK Offshore Software Development and Business Process Outsourcing division has been consolidated under a new brand, NashTech.

The UK business is part of Harvey Nash’s Outsourcing division, which has almost 2,000 staff and technology specialists with access to a further 2,500 software engineers in its joint venture in Asia. The global division spans the USA, UK, Germany, Vietnam and now Australia. This success has been publicly recognised by the governments of Vietnam and the UK since its launch in 2001 and clients include Honda, Alcatel Lucent, Capita, L&G, Genus, NSK, Prudential, ANZ Bank, Discovery Channel and Hearst Publications.

The new brand builds on this success, facilitating growth and further development in the UK with an identity distinct from the Group’s market leading recruitment services, whilst still maintaining a strong link with the widely recognised and respected Harvey Nash brand.

The new brand also aligns the UK and Vietnam operations more closely with the Harvey Nash Group’s wider outsourcing offerings, in turn providing greater scale, reach and a wider service offering for its clients. For example, over 100 million people use 3G smartphone communications technology developed by the group’s German telecommunication outsourcing business, Nash Technologies GmbH, every day.
