About Us

RVA Surveyors are an award-winning business rates reduction specialist, helping businesses across England and Wales reduce their commercial business rates liabilities.

We’re looking for an organised, proactive and personable Credit Controller & Accounts Assistant to join our growing finance team.

This is a varied role where credit control is your primary responsibility, alongside supporting the wider finance function with Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable and general accounts administration. We’re looking for someone who enjoys variety, takes ownership of their work and is happy to get involved wherever support is needed.

As part of our finance team you’ll manage your own customer ledger while providing support across the accounts function.

Your Responsibilities Will Include

  • Managing your own portfolio of customer accounts
  • Chasing overdue payments by telephone and email
  • Building positive relationships with customers and resolving account queries
  • Negotiating payment arrangements where appropriate
  • Allocating customer payments and reconciling accounts
  • Raising sales invoices and credit notes
  • Supporting the Accounts Receivable function
  • Assisting with Purchase Ledger processing, supplier invoices and payment runs when required
  • Reconciling supplier statements
  • Maintaining accurate financial records using Sage & Xero
  • Supporting month-end processes and providing general finance administration
  • Assisting colleagues across the finance department during busy periods and annual leave

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.
