The unemployment rate in Singapore is quite low, around 3%.
BUT: To find a job (and get a work visa) as a foreigner is harder, since the employer needs to show that there is no suitable local available for hire, before they can employ you.
Therefore "any sector really, I can play my role" will NOT work. You need some specific niche skills that are rare and in demand in Singapore, and focus on industries and companies that need it.
There are plenty of local accountants, so just accountancy will not get you far.
