Good Afternoon,
I have stumbled accross this forum whilst attempting to read up on the skills required to do bookkeeping as an additional income
A bit of background first. I have a degree in Accountancy and am CIMA part qualified. I currently have a 9-5 day job as a Management Accountant for a manufacturing company. I have decided that I would like to try an earn some additional money. I have a 3 year old boy, and am trying to save for a new home.
I sort of stumbled accross the idea of bookkeeping when my hairdresser asked me if I would be interested in looking after her books whilst the current lady who looks after them was on maternity. I'd never thought about it, and declined because I wasnt fully sure what was entailed. However having done so Ive been toying with the idea, and thought it may be able to assist in additional income.
So first question, from my background is it plausible that I would be able to progress with this? And if so where do I begin?
Ill just add my partner has just finished her CIMA Certificate of Business Accounting, so it is something she would like to do alongside whilst she prepares to begin her CIMA journey.
Hope Ive given enough information, and look forward to any responses.
Thanks in advance
Sam
