Your New Company
This well-established and forward-thinking accountancy practice is based in modern offices in Motherwell. With a strong reputation across Scotland, the firm is experiencing significant growth, particularly within its external team. Their expanding client portfolio includes a number of housing associations and charities, offering a varied and rewarding workload. Known for their approachable culture and commitment to staff development, this is a place where professionals can genuinely thrive.
Your new role
This is a newly created opportunity to join the external team at a time of exciting growth. The role will be broad and varied, covering accounts preparation, tax compliance, and audit work. Whilst audit will form part of the role, it won't be the sole focus initially, making this an ideal position for someone who enjoys variety and client interaction. You'll work closely with a range of interesting clients, gaining exposure to the not-for-profit sector and contributing to meaningful work that makes a difference.
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.
