Finance Systems Specialist / Finance Systems Accountant – Legal Sector

London – Hybrid (2-3 days onsite)

Initial 6-month contract

Aderant Expert / Elite 3E

I’m working with a leading international organisation that is looking for an experienced Finance Systems Specialist / Finance Systems Accountant to support a major period of growth and international expansion.

The immediate focus will be supporting the finance systems setup for a new international office, working closely with Finance, Technology and third-party vendors to ensure the financial structures, processes and reporting are configured and tested correctly.

This isn’t a standard application support role – we’re looking for someone who genuinely understands accounting and how it translates into the finance system.

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.
