Financial Controller | Tadcaster | Up to £70,000 | Hybrid

Ever felt like you're the last to know about decisions that finance should've been in from the start?

This one's different.

You'll be joining a growing business based in Tadcaster as their Financial Controller, taking full ownership of the finance function and working directly with senior leadership. It's a role built for someone who wants to be in the room, not just sent the minutes afterwards.

What you'll be doing:

  • Owning the monthly management accounts process
  • Leading budgeting, forecasting and cashflow
  • Managing year-end accounts and the external audit
  • Strengthening financial controls and reporting
  • Overseeing statutory reporting and tax submissions
  • Business partnering with senior leadership across the business
  • Driving process improvements as the business grows
  • Supervising and developing the wider finance team

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.
