Interim CFO
Acuity Associates is working on behalf of a confidential client seeking an experienced Interim CFO to join their leadership team later this month.
This is a broad, hands-on role within a growing, AIM-listed business where you'll operate as a genuine commercial partner to the Board. Alongside ownership of the finance function, you'll lead governance, investor reporting, treasury and wider business support, working closely with senior stakeholders during an important stage in the company's journey.
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.
