Hi everyone
Looking for a bit of advice here. I am currently part qualified Accountant and earning around £24000 a year ($31000 approx). I am living out in the shires not in a big city - although I'm in the South which I believe would mean a bit higher? Anyway, I've been working in accounting for around 4 years and I feel like I'm being underpaid - I got into it fairly late - around 28 which may make a difference, but I feel like I should be making more at this point.
They do give me study support so that adds probably about £6000 total, based on the exams I have left - but still I think it's poor. I have been looking at other jobs and most offer at least £30000.
This site suggests average salaries for my experience level far higher than I'm getting.

Thoughts anyone?
