You’ll be part of a small, high-calibre team, reporting into an experienced Fractional CFO and working alongside a Senior Management Accountant with strong scale-up and private equity backgrounds, offering excellent mentorship and development. The view is for this person to step up into the Management Accountant position within the next 12-18 months.

It’s ideal for someone early in their career who’s ambitious, curious, and wants real exposure. You’ll take ownership, improve processes, support automation, and gain experience in a future ERP transformation, all while growing quickly with the business.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and want to be part of a genuine growth story (not just a standard 9-5), this role can accelerate your career in a way traditional roles can’t.

Key Responsibilities

Banking and cash management

  • Process and reconcile bank transactions promptly
  • Perform reconciliations across multiple accounts and currencies
  • Support management of foreign currency bank accounts and FX-related adjustments
  • Assist with weekly cash flow monitoring and reporting
  • Record and reconcile receipts across payment platforms to maintain ledger accuracy

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.
