Our client is a high-growth, private equity-backed Operational Real Estate business operating in a dynamic SME environment. Based near West London with hybrid working, the company is pursuing a buy-and-build strategy with multiple acquisitions on the horizon, aiming for a PE exit in the coming years.

They seek a high-calibre, commercial Financial Director to own the finance function, drive performance, and lead a business-modernisation and financial transformation.

You will fully manage all financial matters, focusing on profitability growth, margin protection/expansion, and strategic partnership with the private equity investors, including rigorous modeling, evaluation, and execution of investments that align with the scalable business platform.

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.
