Finance Manager, HARRIS HILL
Finance Manager
Location: Heathrow / Hybrid
Sector: Charity
Start Date: Immediate – Initial 4-week assignment, part-time (3 days a week, 1 day in office).
We’re seeking an experienced Finance Manager to join our well-established, purpose-led charity now. This is a hands-on role within a small, collaborative finance team, focused on ensuring smooth day-to-day financial operations.
Ideal candidates will be confident stepping into an existing environment, able to quickly grasp processes, introduce structure where necessary, and operate with high autonomy.
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.
