Finance Business Partner

PE-Backed Growth Story

Salary: £55,000 - £60,000 + Bonus & Benefits
Location: Central London (3 days office, 2 days remote)
Reporting to: Finance Director

Nirvana Search is exclusively partnering with a highly acquisitive, Private Equity-backed business to find a commercially driven accountant who is ready to make an immediate impact.

If you are recently qualified and want to fast-track your career through direct exposure to live M&A and strategic business partnering, this is the launchpad you’ve been looking for.

Forget standard business-as-usual accounting. This role drops you right into an aggressive buy-and-build journey. You will act as the crucial link between the numbers and the operational teams, providing the insights that shape the company’s trajectory. It is an incredible platform for a newly qualified (or 1-2 years PQE) professional to gain strong commercial exposure early in their career.

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.
