Ready to start your career in Finance?

Are you finishing school or college and wondering what's next? Maybe you're interested in Finance, Business or working with numbers, but you're not sure university is the right route for you.

At MM Flowers, we're looking for a Finance Apprentice to join our Finance team and take their first step towards an exciting career in Finance and Accounting.

You'll earn a salary, gain a recognised qualification and get real Finance experience at the same time. And don't worry – we're not looking for someone who already knows everything about Finance. We're looking for someone who's bright, curious, good with numbers and keen to learn. We'll help you with the rest.

What will you learn?

You'll work alongside experienced members of our Finance team and gradually build your knowledge and confidence across areas including:

  • Processing invoices and financial transactions
  • Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable
  • Checking and reconciling financial information
  • Using Finance and accounting systems
  • Working with Excel and financial data
  • Helping prepare reports and analysis
  • Understanding how Finance supports a large business
  • Identifying errors and investigating why numbers don't match
  • Learning about financial controls, data security and professional standards

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.
