Hi,
I think you should go for ACCA.
Reason being, you are already working in a Finance Department.
CIMA and ICMA are both for Management Accounting. Even though CIMA is on the boom, it's not relevant to you.
I would say that you should do ACCA, you study the F9 Financial Management and go on ahead to choose the notorious optional P4 Advanced Financial Management like a sort of specialization.
As soon as you complete, you get immediate ACCA MEMBER status.
Hope it helped!

So as you said you wanted to " enhance your qualification "
After your ACCA is complete your profile would be presumably as one of a Senior Finance Position with a Post graduation and also " Professionally Qualified ".
Basically, ACCA is designed for individuals like you who ought to benefit from it the most during the fairly advanced stages of their career.
