Walker's Shortbread - Finance Operations Manager

About the Company

Since 1898, Walker's Shortbread has been baking exceptional products from the heart of Speyside. Still family-owned after five generations, their products are enjoyed in more than 100 countries worldwide and, in 2024, revenue exceeded £200m for the first time in the company's history.

Whilst their reach is global, their roots remain firmly in Speyside. With six production sites, a head office based at the historic Aberlour House, and more than 1,000 permanent colleagues, they are proud to be one of Moray's largest employers and an organisation that plays an important role in the local community.

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.
