Our Client

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a fast-growing, family-owned industrial services business with ambitious plans for continued expansion. This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious finance professional who wants to play a key role in the continued development of a growing business.

The culture is important to the organisation. Despite its scale and ambitious growth plans, it remains a friendly family-owned business where people are trusted to take ownership and make a difference.

The Role

You will take responsibility for the day-to-day running of the finance function, working closely with the senior leadership team to provide high-quality financial information, commercial insight, and robust financial control. You will lead a finance team comprising Management Accountants, Accounts Assistants, an AR/AP Manager, and Ledger Clerks, with responsibility for developing the team and improving the efficiency of the function. The business is highly data-driven, with a strong focus on KPI reporting and using financial information to support better commercial decision-making.

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.
