I have been looking for a finance manager/management accountant role for a couple of months now and have had no luck at all.

I am CIMA 'qualified', just submitted my PER. I have over 7 years of experience working in various finance roles. But I have just taken a one-year gap in my career.

I have made a LOT of applications and not really heard anything back. I have had a few recruiters call me about opportunities, but nothing has really come of it.

Any tips or recommended job sites?

The current employment market for Finance is really, really competitive, I don’t know if you have explored consulting or contract work in the meantime. Being in the job market myself I have found that AI Resume sifting forces you to contract services that write Resumes for you and use these AI tools to use words pertinent to specific positions you seek, but it’s not a “one size fits all” solution. This also has made recruiters and hiring managers very picky with the candidates they call to interview.
