Interim Financial Controller
6 Month Contract
SME, High growth Tech scale-up
London | Hybrid working
Salary: £90,000 - £100,000
Eutopia Search are working with a high-growth Tech scale-up that is building something genuinely exciting and is looking for an exceptional Financial Controller to join during a pivotal phase of growth.
This isn't a role where you'll simply maintain existing processes – you'll build the finance function for the next stage of the business. Working closely with senior leadership, you'll create scalable financial operations, improve controls, implement systems, and provide the commercial insight needed to support rapid expansion.
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.
