Finance Director (Client of BKL)
Location: Marylebone | Hybrid working | Full-time

We are working with a long-standing and valued client to appoint a hands-on Finance Director to lead their finance function. The Group comprises over 10 family-owned entities, operating across PFI infrastructure, financial investments, and real estate. With a combined turnover of approximately £11m, the group generates income from a range of residual PFI contracts and other interests, supporting a final salary pension scheme within the Group.

This is a senior role with broad exposure, but it remains very much hands-on. You will be the most senior finance professional in the business, working closely with the owners and pension fund Trustees, supported by a small remote back-office 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.
