Any advice for a 32 YO male in the engineering sector to career switch into accounting?

Contary to what other advice you might get here, it is true that traditionally a big 4 pedigree would be the only way to an accounting path. But depending on which area of accounting you are keen to pursue I would suggest if you are willing to take a pay cut which is definite- explore applying the statistical and math knowledge you have and take up accounting courses as recommended and focus on fund administration fields. Singapore has seen an explosion of private family offices, private equity funds and increasingly real estate. There are no lack of opportunities for people with drive an ambition.

I did a career switch into accounting when I was 25.

​

No regrets for me as I enjoy crunching numbers and analyse reports

I think you should look harder into what type of career you would like to switch to. accounting is a career that most people switch out from as the opportunities are alot lesser compared to other careers

Take a masters in accounting course that is accredited either by acca or cpa.
