Our client is a large, internationally group, is looking to appoint a Head of FP&A. The role sits within a central finance function, reporting to the Finance Director for Performance and Transformation, and carries real influence across the wider business.
This is a leadership role covering Group FP&A end to end. You would own regular forecasting and the annual budget process, lead the rolling forecast and longer term planning, and work across every function to capture and report on performance (both financial and non-financial). The mandate is about making the numbers useful, developing management information for board and executive audiences, building reporting that shows granular performance across the drivers of the business, and surfacing the trends and opportunities that can actually be acted on. There is a strong data and business intelligence thread running through it, alongside financial modelling to support business development, efficiencies and M&A. You would also manage and develop a team spread across central and business unit roles.
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.
