Do you thrive on influencing decisions, challenging thinking and helping a business achieve its commercial ambitions?

Sheridan Maine is partnering with a powerful brand to recruit a talented Finance Business Partner. This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-paced, customer-focused organisation where commercial finance is truly at the heart of strategic decision-making.

Working closely with senior leaders across the wider organisation, you'll provide insight, challenge and support that helps drive performance and shape the future direction of the business. This is far more than a reporting role. You'll be a trusted adviser, helping stakeholders understand what the numbers mean, what actions are needed and where opportunities exist to create value.

The Opportunity

As a key member of the commercial finance team, as Finance Business Partner you'll:

  • Partner with Directors and senior stakeholders across multiple business areas.
  • Turn complex financial and operational data into meaningful commercial insight.
  • Identify risks, opportunities and performance trends, helping leaders make informed decisions.
  • Lead budgeting, forecasting and planning processes for your areas of responsibility.
  • Develop business cases, financial models and investment appraisals to support strategic initiatives.
  • Present financial performance and recommendations to senior management teams.
  • Drive continuous improvement across reporting, forecasting and business partnering activities.
  • Use data and analysis to challenge assumptions, influence outcomes and improve business performance.

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.
