London | Media & Entertainment - £75,000 + Bonus & Benefits

We are working with a highly successful and entrepreneurial business within the media, publishing, and entertainment sector to recruit a Financial Planning & Analysis Manager.

This is a broad and commercially focused FP&A role, working closely with the Head of Finance and senior leadership team. The successful candidate will take ownership of financial planning and revenue forecasting, while providing the analysis and insight that supports strategic and commercial decision-making.

A particularly interesting aspect of the role is the opportunity to work across publishing, intellectual property, content, and entertainment revenues, analysing performance across multiple revenue streams, rights agreements, and commercial partnerships.

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.

The Role

You will lead the annual budgeting and reforecasting process for revenue, partnering closely with commercial teams to understand performance, future income, and key revenue drivers.

Alongside core FP&A responsibilities, you will:

  • Develop deeper analysis of publishing and content performance
  • Assess wider market and industry trends
  • Help senior stakeholders understand what is driving business performance
  • Support three-to-five-year strategic planning
  • Model new business opportunities and commercial ventures
  • Produce high-quality analysis and presentations for senior leadership and Board-level audiences

The business is continuing to invest in its finance systems and data capabilities, so there will also be an opportunity to work with Power BI, financial reporting tools, and AI, helping develop more sophisticated reporting, research, and decision-support capabilities.

About You

We are looking for a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or CIMA) with ideally 3+ years' PQE and a strong combination of financial modelling, FP&A, and commercial analysis experience.

You will need to be highly analytical but equally comfortable working with non-finance stakeholders. This role would suit someone who enjoys understanding the story behind the numbers and translating complex financial and commercial information into clear recommendations.

Strong Excel skills are essential, while experience with Power BI or similar data and reporting tools would be advantageous.
