The Role

A high-performing, fast-paced boutique financial services firm is seeking a Financial Accountant to join its finance team. This is a commercially-minded role offering direct exposure to the CFO and senior stakeholders across the business.

Reporting to the CFO, the Financial Accountant will play a key role in the finance function, contributing to both day-to-day accounting operations and broader process improvement initiatives. This is an excellent opportunity for a technically strong accountant looking to move into a commercial, in-house environment with genuine senior stakeholder exposure.

Key Responsibilities

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.
