The next step in your career journey

If you’re an ambitious individual with a great attitude and ready for a new challenge, we’re looking for an audit senior associate to help us take our audit team to the next level. We will value and listen to your ideas to help the team succeed; we are of a size where you personally can make a difference to the way we do things.

  • Working with clients ranging from early-stage businesses through to large groups with turnover in excess of £100m.
  • Building strong client relationships and gaining a thorough understanding of clients’ businesses to support the efficient and effective delivery of audit engagements.
  • Supporting the continued development of the audit department by contributing to audit methodology, process improvements and best practice initiatives.
  • Training, mentoring and supervising junior team members, supporting their technical and professional development.
  • Managing multiple assignments and competing priorities simultaneously, ensuring deadlines are met whilst maintaining a high standard of quality and attention to detail.

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.
