Do you want to have real influence in shaping the future of a law firm?
This is your chance to own the finance function end to end.
Using technology, this law firm is on a mission to rebuild legal services from the ground up.
Backed by leading European VCs and founded by a team with prior success in consumer and SaaS businesses, they’re building something genuinely different: a law firm with technology at its core. On a day-to-day basis, this means less admin for you, and more efficient results for your clients.
This is their first finance hire, reporting directly to the founders.
You'll own finance end-to-end and design the function from a clean slate — deciding what shouldn't exist, what should be automated, and where human judgement actually matters.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What's in it for you
- Define the function. You create the systems, standards and culture. No legacy processes, no inherited tooling, no committee.
- Founder access & real influence. Direct line to the founders and a seat at the table on pricing, unit economics, fundraising and strategy — not just reporting.
- AI-native by design. Work alongside our in-house engineering team to build the workflows you wish you'd always had.
- Meaningful equity in a fast-growing, well-backed business at a genuine sector inflection point.
- Senior leadership seat with scope to grow into HOFA or broader ops as we scale.
- Hybrid working - 3 days a week in the office.
What you'll own
- Management accounts, budgeting, forecasting, cash, statutory accounts, audit and tax — alongside CLC Accounts Rules and client account compliance, commercial partnering with the founders, and supporting fundraising, board reporting and investor relations.
