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.
We’re looking for someone with at least three years’ experience in bookkeeping, financial administration or management accounting, with strong Excel skills and experience using cloud accounting software such as Xero.
You’ll have the opportunity to work across a genuinely interesting range of financial activity, including:
- Management accounts and budget monitoring
- Cashflow forecasting
- Bookkeeping and bank reconciliations
- Restricted and unrestricted funds
- Grant reporting
- Gift Aid and Theatre Tax Relief
- Payroll, pensions and PAYE
- Year-end accounts and audit preparation
