Group Financial Reporting Manager
Location: West London (Hybrid – 2 days per week)
Salary: £90,000 plus bonus
We're partnering with a high-growth international organisation to recruit a Group Financial Reporting Manager into its Group Finance function.
This is a highly visible role, offering the opportunity to lead on technical accounting matters, group reporting, and acquisition accounting within a complex, multi-entity business. You'll work closely with senior finance leaders and play a key role in ensuring best-in-class financial reporting across the organisation.
The Opportunity
As the Group Financial Reporting Manager, you will take ownership of technical accounting guidance, support strategic projects including M&A activity, and ensure compliance with relevant accounting standards across the group. This role offers significant exposure to senior stakeholders and the opportunity to influence key financial decisions.
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.
