get a job as an accountant but only do small jobs and work your way up through the ranks.

Don't measure yourself against others. If you want some advice about how to get into accounting directly without uni contact your local connexions service they should be able to tell you what you need to be looking for, working and training your way up together is very possible and more likely in big organisations - have a look for the job vacancies section of the websites of any large businesses in your area and your local council, nhs trust and universities.
