About the Role

We are hugely excited to have the opportunity to partner with a luxury consumer brand - SME, operating as part of a much larger billion £ turnover group. The business is investing and evolving and this is a hugely exciting time to join. We are currently seeking a high calibre Finance Manager to support senior leadership directly, across mainstream and commercial finance activities.

This is an incredibly broad role and therefore an incredible opportunity for a top tier ACA/ CA looking to move from practice or alternatively a bright ACCA/ CIMA who already possesses relevant industry experience and is ready for an exciting challenge.

We are looking for those who are super driven and passionate and keen to fast track 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.
