About The Role

North Northamptonshire Adult Social Care is seeking to recruit a Financial Assessments Officer to join the Financial Assessments Team.

You will be working at the forefront of best practice, playing a key role in delivering the Financial Assessments service for Council’s vulnerable adult customers.

The successful candidate will be an enthusiastic and motivated individual and relish challenges to continually improve the way we work through the best use of our shared services systems, processes, and people.

What will you be doing?

  • You will be responsible for monitoring and reporting on your progress, providing in depth management information when requested and strive to meet set targets.
  • You will be required to actively participate in meetings and discussions in respect of service developments and improvements. We embrace new ideas and are always looking at how we can improve our service to maximise its full potential.

About You

To be successful you will need:

  • to be self-motivating with a track record of being able to plan and prioritise your own workload.
  • to be able to work effectively within a team and on your own.
  • to be able to effectively travel across North Northamptonshire.
  • to have the ability to be flexible in your approach in supporting vulnerable adults and their carers to ensure accurate information is captured.

In exchange for your expertise, experience, and enthusiasm, we will offer support in continuing your personal and career development. In addition to providing a wide range of employment linked benefits, we will provide you with competitive annual leave and access to an excellent pension scheme.

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.
