An award-winning global investment manager is hiring a Senior Manager-level FP&A professional into a high-impact, commercially focused role.
This is a pure FP&A position with strong exposure to senior leadership, combining strategic planning, advanced modelling and genuine business partnering. You will play a key role in shaping decision-making, driving performance insight and supporting a broader finance transformation agenda with a strong focus on automation and emerging technologies.
While not a direct line management role, you will operate in a leadership capacity, mentoring others, improving outputs and helping raise the overall standard of FP&A across the function.
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.
