Accounts Semi-Senior / Senior
Wolverhampton | Hybrid | Permanent | Full time or Part time | Around £35,000
The opportunity:
A well-established practice in Wolverhampton is looking to add an experienced Business Services Semi Senior or Senior to its team. The firm has a stable, friendly department (two managers and seven staff members at varying levels) and offers a genuinely supportive environment.
This is a broad, varied role working across a portfolio of sole traders, partnerships, and limited companies. The majority of the work is accounts preparation, supported by related compliance including corporation tax and VAT returns. Most work is office-based, with occasional client visits.
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.
