- Build insightful dashboards, visualisations and KPI reporting that support business decision-making.
- Streamline month-end, quarter-end and year-end reporting activities.
- Extract, transform and analyse data from multiple sources using Microsoft Fabric, SQL and other modern analytics tools.
- Partner with Technology and Finance teams to deliver transformation projects from requirements gathering through to implementation.
- Translate business needs into scalable reporting and analytics solutions.

- Act as a subject matter expert for finance analytics, reporting and finance systems.
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.
