Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
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.
This could be an excellent opportunity for someone moving out of practice who wants broader responsibility, exposure to a commercial environment and their first experience of team management.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
It would also suit someone already working in industry who enjoys the technical and financial accounting side of finance and is looking for greater ownership.
You’ll need to be a qualified accountant — ACA, ACCA or CIMA — with strong financial reporting, balance sheet and controls experience.
Package includes:
- Salary up to £60,000
- 10% bonus
