Not every finance role gives you the chance to genuinely develop.
Some keep you posting journals, reconciling accounts and doing the same thing month after month. This isn't one of them.
If you're looking for a role that will help you build your management accounting experience, support your studies and give you exposure to the commercial side of finance, this is well worth a look.
You'll be joining a business that believes in developing people from within. Whether you're already studying AAT, CIMA, ACCA or ACA, or planning to start, you'll be encouraged to keep progressing.
What you'll be doing:
- Preparing monthly management accounts.
- Journals, accruals and prepayments.
- Balance sheet reconciliations and variance analysis.
- Budgeting and forecasting support.
- KPI reporting and financial analysis.
- Bank and control account reconciliations.
- Fixed asset accounting.
- Year-end audit preparation.
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.
