Our Client is looking for a Finance Business Partner

Location: Hybrid working based in midlands or north with travel to Brainkind locations as required

Salary: £36,900- £45,000 per annum (dependent on experience)

Hours: Full Time, 35 hours per week, Monday to Friday

Join our client Brainkind and help shape the future of care through financial insight and strategic partnering.

At Brainkind, our mission is to improve the lives of people with brain injuries and neurological conditions through specialist care, rehabilitation, and support. We are looking for a commercially minded Finance Business Partner to join our Finance team and help drive financial performance, informed decision-making, and sustainable growth across the organisation.

This is an exciting opportunity for a qualified or part-qualified finance professional who enjoys working collaboratively with operational leaders, influencing decision-making, and turning financial data into meaningful business insight.

About the Role

As a Finance Business Partner, you will work closely with operational and corporate teams to provide robust financial analysis, budgeting support, forecasting, and performance reporting. You will act as a trusted advisor to budget holders, helping them understand their financial performance and identify opportunities to improve efficiency and outcomes.

You will play a key role in supporting monthly reporting, annual budget setting, forecasting cycles, business cases, and strategic projects across the organisation.

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.
