Capita Resourcing has developed a strong presence in the media sector throughout the UK, placing finance professionals at all levels in a variety of businesses, ranging from large listed organisations to small, privately owned enterprises. The centre for recruitment within this sector is London with approximately 60% of all positions being based in the Capital.

Historically the main industries within media have been television and radio broadcasting, the film and recorded music industries, printed press and some advertising. More recently the internet (new media) has provided a further channel and has gained considerable pace in growth recruitment.

Compared with many areas, working in accounting jobs in media often delivers a good work / life balance and is attractive to candidates who enjoy more of a creative environment and contributing to a tangible product. For these reasons, it is a highly competitive sector and, whilst fringe benefits are often good, base salaries for accounting jobs in media are often slightly lower than in other sectors.

Further emphasising Capitas position within the market, Capita Group became the managed vendor for the BBC in June 2006 and since then, have recruited over half their finance positions in the UK. The types of positions Capita regularly recruit to include, Assistant Accountant, Management Accountant, Financial / Group Accountant, Business / Financial Analyst, Finance Manager, Financial Controller and Finance Director.
