Join the RAC as a Finance Business Partner and play a key role in supporting financial performance and decision-making across the business.

We're currently recruiting for two Finance Business Partner opportunities, one supporting our Roadside Operations function and the other supporting our Head Office teams. Both roles provide the opportunity to partner with senior stakeholders, delivering commercial insight and help drive performance across some of the RAC's most important business areas.

Working within our Finance team, you'll combine strong business partnering skills with hands-on financial analysis, helping stakeholders understand performance, identify opportunities and make informed decisions. You'll be equally comfortable building relationships, analysing data and finding smarter ways of working through process improvement and automation.

This is an excellent opportunity for a qualified accountant who enjoys both the commercial and technical aspects of finance. Whether supporting operational teams or corporate functions, you'll play a key role in planning, forecasting, reporting and delivering meaningful business insight.

What you'll do

  • Partner stakeholders to support financial performance and decision-making
  • Own budgets, forecasts, monthly reporting and trading updates
  • Deliver accurate P&L, balance sheet, cash flow and project reporting
  • Analyse performance, identifying trends, risks, opportunities and performance drivers
  • Provide commercial insight, challenge and recommendations to stakeholders
  • Support investment appraisals, business cases and strategic initiatives
  • Build robust financial models and deliver meaningful analysis
  • Develop trusted relationships across Finance and the wider business
  • Maintain strong financial controls and governance processes
  • Support continuous improvement and help shape better ways of working across Finance

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.
