About the Role
Our client specialises in high-impact filmmaking, from sport TV documentaries and launch films to social-first, always-on content. Our client sits at the intersection of sport and culture, delivering impactful creative that connects.
Our client is looking for a commercially minded Head of Finance to take ownership of the studio’s financial engine. The company has experienced rapid growth over the last few years and now needs a bright, motivated mind to take over full operational responsibility for the financial workings of the business.
Working with accountants and bookkeepers, the Head of Finance will provide structure, visibility and control across the studio’s finances, collaborating with the senior leadership team to make smart, data-based decisions at pace. This is a hands-on role, working closely with producers and commercial leads.
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.
The company sets the bar high creatively, and that expectation reaches beyond into business behind the studio.
