FINANCE OPERATIONS MANAGER

Surrey | Hybrid Working | £50,000–£60,000 + Benefits

I'm currently recruiting for a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Finance Operations Manager to join a well-established and growing business based in Surrey. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys leading teams, improving processes and driving operational excellence across finance.

The Role

Reporting into senior finance leadership, you'll take ownership of the day-to-day finance operations function, managing a team of approximately 8 people across:

  • Accounts Payable (AP)
  • Credit Control & Collections
  • Billing & Invoicing

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.
