What's on offer

Why join this firm?

This well-established and growing accountancy practice has built an excellent reputation for delivering high-quality work to a specialist client base.

Unlike many firms where responsibilities can become highly specialised, you'll develop experience across audit, statutory accounts and advisory assignments, giving you broader technical and commercial exposure.

With continued business growth comes genuine opportunity. You'll take ownership of engagements early, work closely with Partners and play a meaningful role in delivering high-quality work while building long-term client relationships.

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.

Desirable experience includes:

Who this role suits

This opportunity is ideal for an Audit Senior looking for greater responsibility, broader technical exposure and a more commercially focused role than many traditional accountancy practices can offer.

You'll enjoy building client relationships, taking ownership of your work and developing beyond audit into a more rounded advisory-focused accountant, with a clear route to progression as the firm continues to grow.
