Financial Reporting Specialist | London | Hybrid

Permanent | Salary up to £75k + Benefits

A leading international business is looking to appoint a Financial Reporting Specialist to join its UK finance function in a hands-on role supporting financial reporting, accounting control and continuous improvement across a complex, multi-entity environment.

Based in Central London with hybrid working, this is an excellent opportunity for a qualified accountant who enjoys working across technical accounting, financial reporting and process improvement.

The Role:

You will play a key role in ensuring the accuracy, integrity and timeliness of financial reporting across a complex UK group, working closely with senior finance stakeholders, international teams and external auditors.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Supporting the monthly close and production of management accounts and reporting packs.
  • Reviewing balance sheet accounts, estimates and key accounting judgements.
  • Managing inter-company accounting and reconciliations across multiple entities and jurisdictions.
  • Overseeing fixed asset and capital accounting.
  • Preparing and reviewing balance sheet reconciliations, focusing on material and high-risk accounts.
  • Preparing statutory financial statements and supporting year-end audit processes.
  • Supporting VAT accounting and returns, together with elements of corporate tax accounting.
  • Ensuring compliance with UK GAAP, IFRS and statutory reporting requirements.
  • Identifying opportunities to improve reporting processes, controls, automation and standardisation.

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.
