We're looking for a recently qualified accountant who is ready to step up and start building their own client portfolio, with support from an experienced team around you.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll manage a portfolio of clients with guidance from our senior team, building toward full ownership as you develop. Day to day, that means:
- Preparing statutory accounts for limited companies (FRS 102 Section 1A), sole traders, and partnerships
- Preparing corporation tax returns and self assessment tax returns
- Handling VAT returns and advising on VAT treatment
- Producing work that is accurate, well structured, and ready for senior review
- Building client relationships, managing expectations, and communicating proactively
- Developing your technical knowledge across a broad range of client types and sectors
- Staying current with regulatory changes, including MTD for Income Tax
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is a role for someone who wants to grow. You'll have support and development from day one, but we'll also give you real responsibility and client contact from the start. If you're the kind of person who wants to learn by doing, this is the right environment for you.
