Job Opportunity
We're looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Accounts Payable Coordinator to join our Global Business Services (GBS) team in Salford, on a Fixed Term Contract basis for 6 months. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone at the start of their finance journey who wants to develop valuable accounting skills within an international business operating across multiple European countries.
Whether you've recently completed an Accounting & Finance degree, are studying towards AAT, or have gained some early exposure to finance through a placement, internship, or junior accounting role, we'd love to hear from you.
You'll join a supportive team environment where attitude, willingness to learn, and attention to detail matter just as much as experience.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
