We are partnering with a market leading telecommunications business in their search for a Finance Controls Manager. This is a 3 month temporary role based in Bristol offering hybrid working and a day rate of up to £510 per day via umbrella for the right candidate.

The Role

You will be accountable for the financial accounting and controls operations covering specific programmes. You will drive process standardisation, build greater trust in the numbers, and ensure robust corporate governance across complex contracts.

Key Responsibilities

  • Financial Integrity & Close: Deliver accurate, fully compliant financial results into the General Ledger while driving process improvements to enable a faster month-end close.
  • Technical Accounting: Prepare accounting papers, manage complex contract judgements, and provide expert advice on IFRS 16 (Leasing), IAS 37 re-assessments, deferred costs, and performance obligations.
  • Financial Controls & Risk: Document, implement, and maintain effective financial processes and internal controls, driving standardisation and compliance.
  • Audit & Governance: Manage audit processes and liaise with internal and external auditors to assure adherence to regulatory standards.
  • Process Improvement: Act as a subject matter expert to streamline financial operations, enhance data insights, and align practices across a matrixed commercial environment.

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.
