Finance Transformation / Group Finance Controller

This opportunity sits within an exceptionally successful hedge fund that continues to scale following a period of sustained growth. As a result, the firm is looking to appoint a newly created Finance Transformation / Group Finance Controller role to support the continued development of the finance function and help build a more automated, data-led, and scalable operating platform.

Reporting into the CFO, the role will sit within a collaborative Group Accounts team of 5 and will have broad exposure across the firm’s global management company structure, covering several jurisdictions. The successful candidate will play a key role in overseeing core finance activities across the group, while also driving projects that improve efficiency, control, reporting quality, and decision-making.

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.
