Refinancing conquers mortgage market, demand for new loans growing
According to fillup k24’s “Barometer of Polish Accountants’ Sentiment 2026,” 61.6% of finance and accounting firms struggle to recruit qualified employees. At the same time, 51.4% of accounting offices and finance departments do not plan to increase employment, while 39.4% do not expect pay raises.
The sector is facing a paradox: companies are cutting costs but need workers with new skills as traditional accounting shifts toward digital analysis. Some 65.9% of accountants say their daily workload has risen sharply, driven by KSeF, new JPK reporting structures, automation, and more detailed tax data requirements.
Experts say the profession is moving away from manual data entry toward supervision, analysis, and advisory work. Employers increasingly value digital skills, ERP experience, AI tools, and the ability to interpret data, not just years of experience.
