Head of Finance
You’ve built a strong finance career, but you don’t want your next move to be all about reporting what’s already happened. You want to be closer to the decisions, helping senior leaders understand the numbers and using them to shape where the business goes next.
As Head of Finance, you’ll turn financial data into clear insight, developing dashboards and analysis that support investment discussions and wider business decisions. You’ll bring structure to the finance function while becoming a trusted voice to senior leadership.
This is a strong next step for an ambitious Finance Manager who has their sights set higher. You’ll broaden your commercial influence, gain greater exposure to leadership decisions, and build the experience needed to move towards a future Finance Director or CFO position.
Who’s it for and what’s in it for you?
Bringing an expert clinical team together with next-generation imaging technology, this is exactly what our client are bringing to the market. And not only this, their key goal is to make access to this level of healthcare as quick and easy as possible. They understand the stress that can come from waiting for a screening, so they want the UK to have early access to excellent facilities.
Currently a small team, this is a business with the mindset and the desire to expand much further than they currently lie; this is your opportunity to join a company with the potential for a meteoric rise. And with that comes the opportunity for quick progression, as well as that feel good factor that comes from bringing excellent diagnostic technology to communities across the country.
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.
