This is a high‑visibility role supporting senior stakeholders, driving financial discipline across the business and providing robust commercial insight to support investment and capital decisions.

  • Provide robust challenge on spend, efficiencies and return on investment
  • Own and develop financial models to support business cases, capital prioritisation and investment appraisal
  • Track and report performance against budgets, forecasts and approved business cases, clearly explaining variances
  • Support governance of capital projects, including post‑investment reviews and benefits realisation
  • Contribute to wider finance and transformation initiatives within a high‑performing finance function

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.
