Job Description

Senior Commercial Accountant

Your new company Hays are delighted to be retained on behalf of a leading NI-based group seeking to appoint a Senior Commercial Accountant to a strategic finance position.

Following sustained growth and continued investment, the business is entering an exciting phase of commercial development, creating an opportunity for a commercially astute finance professional to become a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders across the organisation.

Operating in a fast-paced and highly competitive environment, the business is focused on driving sustainable growth, improving profitability, and evaluating future investment opportunities. This position offers exceptional exposure to Executive and Director-level stakeholders, making it an ideal move for an ambitious accountant looking to broaden their strategic influence and accelerate their career towards future finance leadership opportunities.

Your new role

The Senior Commercial Accountant will provide commercial insight, financial leadership, and strategic challenge across the organisation. Working closely with Directors and senior stakeholders across commercial, operational, and finance functions, you will play a pivotal role in supporting growth, value creation, and business performance.

  • Partnering with Director-level stakeholders across multiple business functions on strategic projects and initiatives.
  • Providing commercial insight and financial analysis to support key business decisions.
  • Managing the financial aspects of multiple projects, ensuring alignment with strategic objectives.
  • Delivering robust financial modelling, scenario analysis, and profitability assessments.
  • Evaluating new commercial opportunities and supporting business case development.
  • Supporting strategic projects, acquisitions, and investment opportunities where required.

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.
