Finance Business Partner | up to £65,000 + 10% Bonus
Are you looking for a true business partnering role? No month end. Proper commercial involvement. Real influence on strategy.
We're working on a confidential search for a Finance Business Partner in a consumer business built around customer experience, where satisfaction and service quality are as much a commercial lever as price. You'll sit close to the senior leaders running the business day to day. You'll be in the room when a supplier contract is being renegotiated, with a genuine say on whether the deal is a good one.
You'll build the financial case for significant capital investment, working through the return, the payback and the risk, and be trusted to push back if it doesn't stack up.
- You'll go product by product and margin line by margin line to understand exactly where performance is strong, where it's slipping, and where the business is quietly losing money without anyone having noticed yet.
- There's a seasonal, demand-driven element to the trading here too, so pricing and margin decisions often need to be made quickly and with real commercial judgement, not just after the fact.
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.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll lead forecasting and budgeting for your area, and you'll be given the room to flag risks early enough that they're a conversation rather than a crisis. That means being the person senior stakeholders come to before a decision is made, not after.
- There's also a pricing and margin element to the role — understanding what's driving profitability at a product and experience level, and using that to influence commercial decisions, from discounting to supplier terms.
- And you'll manage one direct report, so there's a coaching and development side alongside the analytical work.

This is a role for someone who wants to be properly embedded in the commercial side of a business, comfortable holding their own in a room full of senior, non-finance stakeholders, and confident enough to challenge an assumption when the numbers say something different.
- You'll be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) with genuine commercial or business partnering experience and strong modelling skills.
On the practical side:
- £55,000 to £65,000 basic
- 10% bonus
- Hybrid with three days in the office
- A business that keeps hold of its good people once it's got them.
