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

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.
The Finance Trustee is not expected to do any day-to-day bookkeeping but should provide help and support to the treasurer so that efficient processes are used and sound decisions are made.
