Role Overview
Reporting directly to the Financial Accounting Manager, you'll play a pivotal role in ensuring the accuracy of financial reporting, maintaining strong financial controls, and supporting key business initiatives across a multi-entity environment. This opportunity offers broad exposure across the finance function and the chance to contribute to a business undergoing continued growth and development.

This position sits at the centre of the finance team, providing high-quality financial information that supports strategic decision-making across the organisation. You'll be responsible for maintaining the integrity of the general ledger, producing accurate financial reports, and driving efficiencies through process improvements and enhanced controls.

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.
