About the Job
Overview
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Practice or Client Manager to join a well-established accountancy practice in Coventry. This role has become available as the current owners prepare to exit the business within the next year following a recent acquisition.
The firm currently operates with a team of 13 and generates approximately £1.2m turnover, supporting a diverse portfolio of locally based SME clients across a broad range of industry sectors.
This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially minded and people-focused individual looking to take on a key leadership position.
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.
