Hi all, first time posting here. Basically I’m a finance manager in a small family property investment firm based in the UK. I’m looking to make a career move towards sustainability accounting which I am much more passionate about. I’m already mid 30s. Already ACCA qualified. But no prior exp in sustainability field. Any advice on requirements, useful experience etc? Thanks everyone.

Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.

Thanks!
