About the Role
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a recent graduate or early-career finance professional to join a well-established luxury consumer brand as a Finance Analyst.
This role offers an excellent entry point into commercial finance and accountancy, providing hands-on experience across:
- Financial reporting
- Budgeting
- Forecasting
- Business partnering
- Performance analysis
You'll work alongside experienced finance professionals who will support your development and help you build a successful career in finance.

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.
