Finance Manager | Growth Business | Hybrid | Part-Time
Location: London
Build the finance function behind one of London’s fastest-growing workplace food businesses.
At Pow Food, we believe great food has the power to transform the workplace.
Every day we create fresh, nutrition-led food experiences that help people feel better, work better, and connect with one another. Today we’re trusted by some of the UK’s most exciting businesses, and alongside our contract catering business we’ve recently launched NUUDA, bringing our chef-made frozen meals into homes across the UK.
As we continue to grow, we’re investing in the next phase of our finance function.
We’re looking for an experienced Finance Manager who wants more than simply maintaining the numbers. This is an opportunity to build, improve, and influence. You’ll work directly with our Managing Director and Fractional Finance Director to develop a finance function that supports an ambitious, entrepreneurial business entering its next stage of growth.
If you enjoy creating structure, improving processes, and making commercial finance genuinely useful, we’d love to hear from you.
Why this role is different
This isn’t a traditional Finance Manager position within a large corporate team.
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.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll become the driving force behind our day-to-day finance function while helping shape how finance supports the wider business.
Your work won’t disappear into layers of management.
The reports you produce, the processes you improve, and the controls you implement will directly influence business decisions and future growth.
For the right person, it’s a rare opportunity to build something that lasts.
What you’ll be responsible for
You’ll take ownership of our finance operations, including:
- Managing our Xero accounting system
- Purchase and sales ledger
- Payroll
- Bank reconciliations
- VAT returns
- Month-end close and management accounts
- Cash flow management and forecasting
- Financial controls and compliance
- Supporting year-end accounts and external advisers
Alongside the day-to-day responsibilities, you’ll continually look for smarter ways of working, improving reporting, strengthening controls, and helping provide the commercial insight our leadership team relies upon.
About you
We’re looking for someone who enjoys taking ownership and making things better. You might already be a Finance Manager looking for a role with greater flexibility and influence. You could be an experienced Management Accountant ready to step into a broader position. Or perhaps you’re returning to work after a career break and looking for an organization where your experience will be genuinely valued.

Whatever your background, you’ll be someone who:
- Takes pride in producing accurate, reliable financial information

- Thinks commercially, not just technically

In return, you’ll enjoy:
- The opportunity to build and shape an evolving finance function
- Direct exposure to founders and senior leadership
- Flexible hybrid working (3-4 days per week)
- A high degree of autonomy and trust
- Experience across both a premium contract catering business and a growing consumer food brand
