Accountants based in the north of England are typically happier with their employment packages than those based in the south, according to financial recruitment firm ECHM's Regional recruitment index, Q4 2005. More than three-quarters of respondents in Yorkshire and the north-east were happy with their pay and benefits, compared with just over 60% of accountants in London and the south-east, and Manchester and the north-west.
