About the Role
This role is ideal for someone with a solid foundation in Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable, who is comfortable with the daily operations of finance and enjoys engaging across various areas rather than focusing solely on one process.
Key Requirements

- Comfort with the day-to-day finance function, including processing payments, completing bank reconciliations, supporting month-end, and liaising with suppliers.
- Confidence in working accurately and taking ownership of tasks, particularly for manual payment processing.
- Genuine interest in becoming a long-term part of the business, building relationships, and developing responsibilities over time.
- Dependability, hands-on approach, and commercial awareness.
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.
