Introduction
In recent years, the accounting industry has faced significant challenges in recruitment. Many accounting firms, especially small to medium-sized ones, struggle with high costs associated with hiring and attracting qualified candidates. Recognizing this pressing issue, F&M Co., headquartered in Suita, Osaka, has teamed up with Encrew, based in Saitama City, to create a revolutionary service known as
Accounting Career Bridge. This service, launching in April 2025, is designed to simplify the hiring process within the accounting sector significantly.
Understanding the Problem
The accounting industry has been grappling with a shortage of skilled professionals. Many firms report difficulties such as:
- - Lack of applicants for job postings
- - High turnover rates among new hires
- - Expensive fees charged by staffing agencies
These challenges can deter firms from seeking the talent they desperately need. With a mission to alleviate these burdens, Accounting Career Bridge offers a unique, risk-free approach to hiring.
Features of Accounting Career Bridge
The new service is tailored specifically for accounting professionals and incorporates a hybrid recruiting model that merges job advertisement placements with talent acquisition. Here are the key features of Accounting Career Bridge:
- - No Listing Fees: Firms can post an unlimited number of job listings without incurring any costs, regardless of the job title, location, or employment type.
- - Success-Based Fees: Only when a successful hire occurs, firms pay a commission fee of 25% of the new employee's annual salary, which is notably lower than the industry average.
- - Candidate Interaction Management: All initial candidate communications, including screening, are handled by Encrew, minimizing the workload for accounting firms and reducing the chances of mismatch.
- - Anonymous Listings: Firms have the option to keep their names and contact information confidential, enhancing privacy during the hiring process.
- - Thorough Matching Process: Detailed pre-interviews are conducted to ensure a careful matching process between firms and candidates, further reducing the chance of hiring mismatches.
Support and Expansion Plans
As a promotion, the service is currently running a campaign that offers reduced commission fees for the first 500 accounting firms to register. This initiative is part of a larger plan to expand the service's reach to 1,000 firms nationwide. F&M Co. aims to amplify awareness of the Accounting Career Bridge through guidance seminars and case studies, thereby enhancing user support and recognition.
Company Background
F&M Co. has established a solid reputation in providing various accounting services tailored to individual entrepreneurs and small to medium enterprises.
